"Hydro" is part of the name of the Canada-wide service company that manages the electric (and nuclear) power facilities. Canadians are used to using the term "hydro" when we refer to the electricity services to our homes. A few days without water is not a disaster for me. I have plenty in single bottles and some larger containers for times when everything shuts down. -- ../|ug --- OpenXP 5.0.47 * Origin: Mobile?
