Well, that sucked...
Last night at about 8:30 the power went out. From the sirens in the distance I can only guess someone hit a telephone pole and brought down the powerline. I gave up reading by candle light about 10:30 last night and went to sleep.
But on the plus side, with all the extras (printer, wacom, etc) plugged inand the monitor on, I have about an hour of uptime on this UPS.
This gave me a chance to call Re and see how life is in "The Fort". It seems all is well, or in Re's words, "Everything was great until you called."
