The point he was trying to make is if you can't afford a generator or Hotel room and you know a hurricane is approaching and there is a very very good possibility that you're going to be out of power for a few days then either you prepare and make arrangements to make yourself comfortable or just deal with it. But you can't bitch and complain and blame the power company, the city or your neighbors that have generators for your lack of preparation when you knew what to expect.

You can absolutely blame a company for poor service (or in this case poor/excellent reaction to a service being down). That being said, I am not saying entergy isn't prepared or doing a bad job. I have no idea, so I chose not to comment about their preparedness.

For me personally, I've accpeted the fact that when a storm comes, I will most likely be without power. However, like I mentioned before in this thread, being mentally prepared for no power without a generator, doesn't mean I have to act happy that I'm losing 5 pounds of body weight in water every hour (hint of sarcasm).
