Back when I waited tables for a living (what was I thinking? I have no coordination or organization and cannot read lists), I worked with a guy who went to school with Owen (he's the youngest son, right)? He said that the King house had no electricity (I don't know what it was fuelled by) except the study where dad did all his writing, because you kind of need a computer/word processor to work on). I don't know if this is still the case, or if he was being put on. :)
