I am just speculating, but what happened in JimTown, when they shut off our power for several days, due to the Calwood Fire;
was their backup battery system at their *switch" died. This last go round there was a generator running, down at the Centurylink
"switch" powering it during the BlackOut! I very well could be wrong. But that is what I understood at the time. If you have an old princess
landline phone, most of the time you should get "dial tone" and be able to make a call even if the power is out.
