    I'm very sorry scubamomma, it is very hard to read. Saving our tanks during a multi day power outage, especially in winter, is very difficult if not impossible. It is basically a constant vigil with difficulties multiplied by the fact that the hobbiest(s) need to attend to there own safety and needs as well. Please take some comfort in knowing that you did everything you could. Let me know when you're back up and ready.
