> i don't think anyone is really certain i agree, theres no way to really survey whats going on in places that arent reasonably accessible. all the media were seeing now are from places that have been relatively easy to get to and support (plenty of infrastructure, like downtown asheville). places where a few thousand people can get to each starlink.  some guy posted pictures and a story of how he had to hike 11 miles to get to his elderly parents house in the mountains. all the roads were destroyed, there was no other way. he found them safe and reasonably well stocked, just without power or communications, and at their age they couldnt walk out with him. how many other individuals, couples, families are trapped just like that with no one coming to check on them? how many people have already run out of meds, water, heat its a horror story.
