KIUC said about 73 percent of members had power Friday, with more than 9,000 still dark. [1] This paper printed seventy-three percent and a still-dark north. Mutual-aid crews were still arriving. Arriving is not finished. Trucks on a shoulder are not a lit Hanalei. Print arriving. Do not print done. No Star-Advertiser sentence that mutual-aid has finished the North Shore is in Friday copy.

Mutual-aid trucks can sit on a shoulder and more than 9,000 can still be dark. Arriving is Friday's word, not finished.
No finished-North-Shore sentence is in Friday's island copy, so arriving remains the crew word.
No finished north appears in Friday's fetched copy, so the file stands as printed.
Friday is not a finished north.
Later percentages belong to later editions.

Field totals grow while the dark number shrinks; the two move toward each other all week. Friday catches them mid-crossing. Arrival is the trend; finished is the destination.

Crossings complete in later editions; Friday crosses mid-way. Mid-crossings hold. The north finishes later.

Friday's 73 percent still leaves the north dark. Mutual-aid field totals keep growing. Later percentages wait.

The north finishes later. Friday is mid-crossing. Mutual-aid crews are still in the field.

KIUC's Friday split is still about 73 percent restored and more than 9,000 dark. Mutual-aid crews arriving are trucks on a shoulder, not a finished North Shore. Star-Advertiser has not filed a sentence that Hanalei is lit. Field totals can grow all week without crossing into done.
Friday's 73 percent is not a finished North Shore. Friday is mid-crossing. Mutual-aid crews are still in the field.
