However, such as myself, individuals have lost little, if at all. If anyone is to sue FirstEnergy, let it be businesses. I am sorry folks, but being without TV or your AC for a day or so isn't worth tying up the courts for. Millions of dollars of lost productivity is, perhaps.

Geez, these businesses should either put up or shut up. If your business is going to loose a $100,000 a day just because the power went out don't think you should be looking at backup power solutions? I live some place where -45 isn't unusual and I've invested in a small generator to power my furnace should the lights go out. A few kilowatts is less than a grand even in weak ass canadian money.
