Default Re: OT - Mindless Rant

I grew up in Berks County, Pennsylvania, roughly 50 miles NW of Philadelphia. I drank soda when I lived there, and pop when I moved here to Pittsburgh. Back then I ate "Italian sandwiches" and "steak sandwiches", which are subs and Philly cheesesteaks here.

justjake: nah, I've got an appointment in 'Sliberty today; have to take a bus dahntahn to get there.

Hadrian: I highly recommend getting an uninterruptable power supply/surge protector.
APC has an Online questionnaire for figuring out what capacity you need. IIRC, their URL is
www.apcc.com

My UPS keeps me Online through several power flickers a month, and gives time to shut down properly during longer outages.

Cap'n Q

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the
human mind to correlate all of its contents. We live on a placid
island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was
not meant that we should go far. -- HP Lovecraft, "The Call of Cthulhu"
