Patch Question: What's Your Opinion on LIPA's Response to Irene?

Did the utility company operate to the best of its ability following the storm?

It's been almost a week since Irene touched down on Long Island, bringing down tress and powerlines, and leaving close to half a million residents without power. 

Some in Commack are still waiting to get their power back, while others continue to clean debris from their property.

LIPA said it's been working around the clock to restore power and the company estimates it will have power restored to all residents by the end of the weekend.
