SOUNDBITE (English) Teresa Broyles-Aplin, president and CEO of Nashville Electric Service: Reporter (English): "But we need some kind of reference, some kind of time frame, maybe not an exact day or hour.

Teresa Broyles-Aplin (English): "It is important for customers to have information about when power will be restored. And as I mentioned earlier, we now have, since we now all of the, a lot of the main lines up, the backbone, as Brandon described it, now is the time that we can put together that information. So I expect to get something out on, first off, the window of time that we expect to have all customers back on, but then we're wanting to give customers regional, like in your neighborhood type of information. So that is coming as quickly as we can get it." Reporter (English): "What is the window you believe the count, the worst case scenario? Will power be restored in two weeks?" Teresa Broyles-Aplin (English): "I don't think it's great for me to speculate because I don t have the information, but I'm hoping to have something to give you guys very quickly." 6.

SOUNDBITE (English) Terry Miles, Nashville resident: "Here lately, I'll say all we've been eating this peanut butter crackers and about to run out of them and that's the God's honest truth and everything.

But I had to burn it for 30 minutes and leave it off for an hour. That's the only way we could heat that thing. I'm taking a chance to kill myself and kill my wife right now. Because why? Because I'm listening. I ain't sitting around. You know, I said what I had to say. And I walked off and everything because... listen I don't like listening to bullshit. Show it." 8.
