Which company grid is Chris working on, Centerpoint or Entergy? I've heard bad things about Entergy, that they refuse to pay overtime to the linemen and require them to stop working at 40 hours, while Centerpoint DOES pay overtime and does not limit the linemen. Considering the scope of the disaster, Entergy is crazy if they're nickle-n-diming the linemen! [:@]

Did it ever occur to you that 40 hours lineman duty is probably the most that a person should work at this dangerous trade? Tired lineman = dead lineman.
Thanks Red, That's just what a worried Father wants to hear.
