– Badtux the Head-shakin’ Penguin
]]>Jill, local government “inspectors” is a bigger threat than the loss of the business license.
We run into the same thing after hurricanes, and it is definitely short lived, because the Florida law is both enforced and nasty if someone complains.
You are right on the gas and cash. When there is a hurricane looming I always get cash, because plastic is worthless without power or the communications lines. You go back to a cash/barter economy until power is restored.
]]>I have been “training” folks new to CA to have minimum 1/2 tank of gas in the car (and cold hard cash on hand) at all times (in case of quakes and other emergencies)…they all laugh and shake their heads and assume that gas stations will be open with the ability to run credit cards.
People who pull this kind of c**p really should lose their business license.
