Pause. Steve is well-meaning and deep down he wants to believe the best of everyone and everything, but he's not an idiot. If he goes around announcing he has a generator and a couple propane stoves in public, he won't have them for long. "A couple alternative ways to keep the place warm," he finishes definitively, nodding. "At least for a while."
And a decent stockpile of non-perishable foods, too, but that's not what was asked. Although: "I have some spare sweaters and coats and socks I could lend or give away, too, but I wasn't sure where to bring them."
