missypie,
I work with several people who live across the river in Southern Illinois and you are right. Power outages are very common for them and there has been much criticism of their utility companies (there are several in the very Southern tip of IL) in the news over the last few years for their slow response time. If utility companies would start burying lines over the next two decades, they would make life so much easier for their customers and for themselves. It must be a nightmare for the workers to respond to these situations in 16 hour days in terrible conditions and the economic resources required to respond have to be substantial.
