New Yorkers Prepared for Fourth Night of Darkness

By Liz Goodwin, Yahoo! News

02 November 12

n Thursday, 250,000 Manhattanites living below 39th Street braced
themselves for a fourth consecutive night without electricity.

Some walked miles to find open grocery stores to replenish dwindling food
supplies; others ventured outside for the first time since the storm hit
to reluctantly report to work without a functioning transportation
system. Most store fronts were still shuttered, and if you peered into
the windows of shops close to the waterfront, you could see that the
storm surge had moved around the merchandise, as if the stores had gone
through a car wash.

Remarkably, no one seemed that cranky.

Ruven Gottlieb and Dulce Moche, a married couple in their 60s who live on
the fourth floor of a public housing building in the Lower East Side, had
been eating gefilte fish stew--the only thing in their fridge when the
storm hit Monday night--for days. They'd also been living without
electricity or hot water.

Both were looking forward to a hot bath when the power finally comes back
on Friday or Saturday, the utility company's latest estimate. (Many New
Yorkers in other boroughs have to wait even longer for electricity to be
restored.)

"For me, the scariness is the halls are dark, the stairways are dark,"
Moche said. "I have a cane and that's scary. I don't go out unless my
husband takes me down the stairs." Gottlieb had attached a small pen
flashlight to his glasses to light up the dark stairwell for them both.

But there had also been some bright spots. Neighbors have helped each
other out, checking in on the more elderly residents of the building. And
the unexpected and unusual quiet and darkness in a city that never sleeps
gave the couple time for reflection.

"You don't hear any traffic noise at night," Gottlieb said. "Almost no
horns honking. It really could be as quiet as if it were the 19th
century. And it's dark as anything. Not even gaslights. So that part's
OK."

Moche, who was born and raised in New York, was spooked by the strange
weather, and now would rather live farther uptown, away from the harbor,
in case such storms become more frequent. "We had a snow day now or then,
but hurricanes?" Moche said in disbelief.

On Thursday, when they ventured uptown to buy batteries for their
flashlights, Moche took Gottlieb by a building in the East 70s that
houses elderly people. "I'd feel much better being up here," Moche said.

But Gottlieb's resistant to the idea. "It's higher ground, but there's
nothing around there. Chichi little joints. Here, you can eat for
nothing," he said, referring to the cheap food in Chinatown.

In Chinatown, a few enterprising grocers had opened up their stores,
selling fruits and vegetables from their stands during daylight. Others
hooked up noisy generators to give them some power. A few restaurants had
taped up signs saying they were open during the blackout.

Still, the usually bustling area seemed eerily quiet.

Angela Zang, a 14-year-old who lives in Chinatown, said there's been
"nothing to do" for days, and that she would be excited to check her
Facebook page again when the power goes back on. "I'm in a building with
no hot water, so we have to boil everything," she said. She had been
"reading, drawing [and] playing cards" by candlelight to pass the time.
And at one corner of her family's apartment, she got enough service to
check her cell phone.

Josephine, a New York City school teacher who wouldn't give her last
name, wore a large flashlight on a lanyard around her neck as she walked
downtown near City Hall on Thursday. She said it was the first time she
had left her Chinatown apartment since the storm began, and she wanted
the flashlight to navigate her building's stairwell when she got back.
Josephine thought the storm hadn't been so bad, since she and her mother,
who lives with her, were prepared with extra food and water. "It could
have been worse. You see people who lost their homes," she said.

Her friend Melissa, who also declined to have her last name used, said
her ninth-floor apartment near the East River, which also lacked running
water or power, was lit up only by the glow of the Williamsburg Bridge.
She looked longingly at the Brooklyn side of the river, which didn't lose
electricity during the storm. "If I had a boogie board, I'd paddle over,"
she said.

How many employees are there in FEMA? About 7,500. How many New
Yorkers affected by Sandy? About 4 million. The math dictates that
somebody's going to get left out. Hey, why not hop on that tricycle
of yours and head out to NY and open up your Hey, Little Girl lemonade
stand there to help out? I'm sure they'll buy some even from a one-
eyed, one-legged freak like you, that's how desperate they are.

You'll doubtlessly hear from Steve about how he donated $100K to the Red
Cross three days before the storm arrived, and an army of his great,
great grandkids, 50 or 60 of them, swept into Brooklyn to help even as
the storm was raging. And he personally help poor people in Queens to
get their limos up to the second story of their garages.

Don't seem to be any bodies floating in the streets as the WH says
there's nothing there requiring their attention.

Let's see: the Republican governor of New Jersey praised Obama to the
skies--on Faux News, no less!--and the Republican mayor of New York
switched his endorsement to Obama in the wake of the cleanup efforts.

Obama did splendidly, and the GOP is fucked.

Elderly freeze in New Jersey, Obama goes campaigning.

http://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/elderly-face-challenges-coping-sandys-impact-17637455#.UJfVQFk6yEU

Eileen James sits by the window when the sun is out, wears gloves to
bed and hasn't had a hot meal in a week.

Like many elderly people in the New York area coping with no
electricity or heat in their homes in the aftermath of Superstorm
Sandy, the 78-year-old retired secretary confesses she's "starting to
get less and less patient."

Health care officials, social workers and other volunteers are paying
close attention to the elderly in the days since Sandy left millions
in the dark throughout metropolitan New York and New Jersey. While
some say life experiences have tempered the ability of the region's
oldest residents to cope with the immensity of the destruction, others
note signs that the stress of no electricity, displacement from their
homes and upheaval from their daily routines is beginning to take a
toll.

"When the sun is out, I gravitate to where it is coming in through a
window and I sit there," James said Saturday as temperatures hovered
in the high 40s. "I took my thermometer with me and it went up six
degrees, and I felt a little warmer."

There were a lot fewer people living in coastal areas back
in the 70s when we were talking about population control.
Then we passed the buck on the issue, and now there
are a lot more living there, as there are in other fire and
flood prone areas.

We don't need to keep on adding 80 million people a year,
with all the sprawl and infrastructure problems with that.
It's not right to pass that mess on to future generations.
It would be better to increase the death rate, by stopping the
suppression of measles, influenza, malaria, and tuberculosis.
We're living in luxury compared to the bulk of history, so
there should be no complaints about limiting longevity.
Better to have gratitude for all the modern conveniences
we enjoy, and remember that people of the future are not
less important than we are, just because they can't vote.

No? A week later and still hundreds of thousands of people without
power, gas, food, or heat? Obama flies in for a photo op and you call
that doing something?

Governor Christie does.


"I have to say, the administration, the president,
himself and FEMA Administrator Craig Fugate have
been outstanding with us so far. I want to thank
the president personally for his personal attention

In just six days, they've brought the number of people without power down
from over 15 million to less than 100,000--and most of those are in areas
still partially flooded.

Remember the fake "dumpster diving" photo from last week? The far right
will say and try anything at this point to put their shit candidate in
office.

What Christie says does not matter. That does not change the reality
for those who still have no gas, food, or heat.

or is today special?

Outages from Sandy approx 8 Million (not 15)

Remaining customers needing restoration is 1 Million not 100,000 (just
a little off...).
