On your Outage Information and Troubleshooting page, just @#$%^ tell us where your @#$%^ outages are. Don't require an account holder's zip code and phone number first. When you're just a friend trying to help the account holder over the phone (still working over the cell system), that information isn't always available. Or necessary. Out is out. You're a @#$%^ utility. Your outage is public information—or ought to be. Thank you for your service. When it's back.
