Eh, TWW is usually reliable for finding people bitching about stuff. Considering the NOMAD wireless was still up (how I posted from work) I expected 12 threads on the power outage already. When I didn't see any I was confused and thought maybe the work-gods were just letting me out early.

1/8/2008 9:42:53 PM

how the hell did a squirel cause this?

1/8/2008 9:49:26 PM

shorted out a transformer or switch maybe?

1/8/2008 9:52:25 PM

1/8/2008 9:52:33 PM
