   Growing up in the 70s in Wisconsin there was a major ice storm that took out the power lines to our house outside of the city limits. The curmudgeonly farmer who had refused to electrify had the only source of water for the area and I remember driving over with buckets and pumping water by hand. And had to listen to him rant about the evils of electricity.

   Luckily we had a wood burning fireplace so all ten of us could all huddle in the living room for the two weeks it took to get the power restored. But we also had to periodically torch the water pipes to the second floor so they wouldn’t freeze.
