Pharmacy wholesaler takes an extra y2k step

Had an interesting vist this evening from one of my drug wholesalers, Amerisource. They're 4th biggest serving 18,000 pharmacies nationwide. They're offering stores the option of getting a 7 day supply (based on the mix of the last 4 weeks purchases) automatically delivered in case the power/phones go down and they don't hear from me after 4 days of power/phone failure. Would bet all accounts said yes. Knew they'd spent a bundle on backup generators but I believe they're unique at offering this service. You might ask around to see if any store in your town uses them.
