Laugh! I remember dealing with the electric company in Cambridgeshire. That was the single most incompetent billing department I've ever dealt with, and the rates were astronomically expensive. They didn't get one single bill right the whole time I was living there.

But yes, particularly recently, it seems there have been many greedy scum in the US utility industry undermining the infrastructure.

Am I just a superstar in my chosen vocation ( I don't think I am) or is the level of incompetence in the world rising steeply?

PD, you must live in Calgary! *groan*. We have that particular foul-up in spades.

As approx 15 players already had uploaded I'll give it another day before I fire it up.
(otherwise all has to reupload, usually leads to problems....)

I think Geo's provider needs to be sent a trophy for having the worlds least reliable internet service. It took them a month to fix it, Last time it broke. It took a month to "hook him up" in the new location, and now it's down again, for the third time in 2-3 months, for who-knows how long.

I can't get to the PBW site I have tried opening with iexplorer, MyIE. And I have no problems accessing other internet sites.
Is PBW down?

EDIT - I see that it is..
