Joe, don't get caught up in the hype - utility workers were never turned away here
that's a fact
heard about the carpetbagger roofers and contractors after Hugo, Eugene, and Charlie, not here, with the utility workers.
lots of unsavory stuff here in the Garden State, but this is not a part of that.

PS: had 2 crews with 12 trucks from Wisconsin replace 3 downed poles on my block last night. hopefully today they get to test them out..
