I'm not sure about that one. We're actually located about 30 miles up US1 from Key West now. We used to live right in Old Town, and we were there for Georges, but now we're on the group of islands known as The Torches. As far as I know, the Keys doesn't directly receive power from FPL. Our local power comes to us via Keys Energy Services, which certainly may be buying its power from FPL. All I know at this point is that someone turned the power back on last night, and whoever they are, I'm damn glad they did.
