Sparse Posting Ahead...

I'll be offline for maybe 10 days while we take a vacation in the Smoky Mountains and the adjacent regions. But I'll be back. If I find a feral computer somewhere, I might even log in for a minute or two while we're out and about.

Later,
Stan

Have a good time!

But I'd watch out for feral computers, they might look cute, but you just don't know where they've been!

Love the smoky mountains... Hope Irene does not cross your path.

Irene knocked me out of commission on
Saturday. I got back internet this evening. But I still don't have power- ugh!

I must say, being in the generator business these days would be most lucrative in these parts

The Smokys were gorgeous, and Gatlinburg was hard to believe... I expected a rustic mountain town, and got tourist-trap on steroids...

Chris, hope you get through the troubles OK. Most folks around here got generators during the ice storm of '07. We already had one, and got another one to run the well. Last year I put in a DPDT switch so I can fire up the generator, throw the switch to take us off grid, and run the household off the generator (not the furnace tho). Haven't had to use it yet, except to test it.

Generators are generally cheaper after the storm...

Stan,

Hope you're having a good vacay.

I expect your powers of argumentation to be at full tilt when you return.
