D.C. Power outages and Pepco ratings

No opinion

Q: (If lost power) Was your power out for more or less than 24 hours? (If more) How many days were you without power? (Based on all respondents)

Q: (Intro for half of respondents: Given the severity of the storm) How would you rate the job PEPCO did in restoring power after the storm -- excellent, good, not so good, or poor?

Q: One way to limit power outages in the city would be to bury power lines underground, which may cost about six billion dollars. How much extra would you be willing to pay on your monthly electricity bill to do this?
