Hurricane Ike - Emissions from a Beam Tetrode's cathode

The tail end of Ike got us Sunday evening taking down many trees and overhead power lines.

It's now mid-day Thursday and we're still without electricity although we have all other services.
Of course, most of the contents of 2 freezers has thawed.
It's a right pain having to visit the library for internet access.
At least most major shops are open again.
Think we need to get a generator for the winter.
