Interesting - out of curiosity, how big are these cabinets/pedestals? Or would you by chance know details on the natgas power system they are using? Natgas is not ideal in a full-on disaster scenario like an earthquake, but probably could add another '9' onto service levels? I have never heard of or seen such a thing, but it is a really good idea. - Michael DeMan
