I say that not wishing harm or damage to others, just as a guy that got some gnarly weather and no power. So I hope people don’t take it the wrong way.

My line of thinking is this.  What would people do if all of the sudden all social media was gone?  No FaceBook, no Twitter, no Instagram, etc.?  Some people would probably go nuts.  Add to that what if cell towers went down so people couldn't do anything with their phones?  Many people would probably have a melt-down.

This is coming from a guy that doesn't even watch television unless it's a game or the news.

I understood what you getting at, and you are absolutely right.  I was just saying I enjoy the forced outages.  I don’t social media, but my wife does.  I find it comical how frustrated she can get without the “bells and whistles” of life.  And SHE was the country girl!!  I was the “city boy/Yankee”.  

I feel it would do the world good if people were forced to get away from such devices and vices as technology/internet.  Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m no “off the grid” guy.  I will be if I have or want to.  But I enjoy surfing the web too.  So I’m not 100% “Holier than thou”.  Give me a few years or a decade, lol
