I never gave credit to my electricity company for delivering electricity to me. I only get mad when there is an outage.

Counterpoint: I absolutely give credit to Sonic for being a great ISP and recommend them to everyone. I got my parents to switch when Sonic finally rolled out to their neighborhood.

If online comments are anything to go by, I'm not alone.

If you're in the Bay Area and you can get a Sonic fiber connection, I would highly recommend them over AT&T/Comcast/etc.

I think of electric vehicle fires and jet airliner crashes.

Also, telsa self-driving. yes, we know about the greatly publicized accidents, or the tweets of the founder, but the avoided incidents not so much.

Just remember, the power grid fails in theory but works in practice.

Well in a way you do. They send you a fine bill every month and you do credit some of your allegedly hard earned bucks.
