NYC Council member gives tech help to gas station

Excerpt:

NEW YORK A New York City Council member did his part to jump in following superstorm Sandy by dealing with a crashed computer system at a Queens gas station, CBS New York reported. John Rigone, the owner of the 15th and 49th Street Auto Care Center, told 1010 WINS that his station was without power for a week after the storm. When electricity was restored, he understood the system had actually crashed. Rigone called the workplace of City Council Member Dan Halloran (R-19th), who went to the gas station to help take care of the trouble. "He was actually programming the computers," Rigone stated. "He was online getting diagrams on how to reboot certain systems. This is all gas station equipment, which nobody really knows about, but he took the time out to really get in it to get the place up and running.".

Key:

Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
