...and, let's not forget: linemen have one of the roughest jobs, and they're 
out there in the middle of wretched weather putting the grid back together so 
we all can watch the TV news about how miserable the weather is out there. 
They're heroes who're all too often unsung...and if you're energizing a line 
that shouldn't have power on it, you could kill one of them.

Please, please, please don't connect _anything_ that generates power to the 
grid until the power company has given it their blessing. It may seem like 
petty bureaucratic bullshit, or serious overkill, or the like -- and it may 
well be. But the guys doing the hard and dangerous work keeping the lights on 
deserve our thanks, and the best way to thank them is to put up with whatever 
nonsense the power company might ask before connecting generating devices to 
the grid.

Cheers,
