The article makes a faulty implication that the pumps are 'empty' or that gas itself is in short supply. It's being reported there is plenty of gas available but there is no electricity to operate the gas stations. National Guard units have actually been giving away gas to help out. Chalk it up to a side effect of our interdependent infrastructure - no electricity = no gas. Maybe one day we'll have a smart grid using multiple sources for power - wind, solar, geothermal, hydro, etc., especially at the neighborhood level, instead of an antique grid based on remote (sometimes out of state) power stations. Solar-rechargeable electric cars would make this type of story a thing of the past.

BTW, sex was the first type of currency ever 'invented'.

Cause we had to suffer snow 4-5 months and that's If you are in the furthest south of the country. Probably year around snow for North.
