One corrupt employee with a flash drive and my business is compromised. (I'm not condemning Ed Snowden... he seems like a decent guy from what I know of him.) I'm looking for economical steps I can take in a do-it-yourself environment. That battery powerpack I mentioned might be a step in the right direction. I don't think I'd try to cable/chain it because of potential problems with doing so. I'd just have to manually start using it. And something like that is needed for the bike generator option. So if in the future I decided to literally ride out the storms, I'd have one of the pieces I needed. -- Brian Ebenezer Enterprises http://webEbenezer.net "G-d is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble.
