In the winter outage case, shutting off the power may have resulted in freezing to death. Should choosing the wrong power contract result in death while you sleep?
- WalterBright 3y agoYou seem to be coming from the position that there was enough power for everybody. That was not the case. Besides, how hard is throwing on an extra blanket, layering up shirts, wearing a couple jackets, etc. A house doesn't instantly cool down, either. It may take a day or two for the temp in the house to decline. You'll still get solar gain through the windows, and some coming up from the ground.
