Like, ya know, when that thing that makes you move, it has pistons and things, When your thingamajigy is providing power, you do not hear other peoples thingamajig when they are providing power.

Yes. The forums have been acting a bit strange as of late. I'm curious to know if perhaps the forum usage has increased. More forum activity going on and it is causing some network latency.

Rolling blackouts across Texas.

Apparently we don't have the capacity to power everyone's heaters.  A/C manages to stay on during the summer just fine though.

I was shocked at how many subdivisions in the Houston area were all electric, including heat.

All of the natural gas must be shipped up north.

Nope.  The BBS server is at our Grapevine office.  We suffered a power outage this morning and it took a bit to get the gas generator up and running.

Well...no poop!  Does that mean the "Free Forums" company is also an offshoot of HTC?

Last time the generator was tested was? Almost everything was hard starting up here today. I just stayed home. No need to go out with -30 wind chills.
