How awful, Robert. For how long was your power out? I've had various length power outages during the years (usually caused y wind) but that was in the days before computers, or before I became a bookshare volunteer and otherwise addicted to using computers. Now I chafe if I have to be without the use of the computer or tv for any length of time. I can do everything else by candlelight, or read with the aid of a flashlight, and I do have a battery-powered radio, but . . . I can't believe how I miss the computer. Also, when we got a stove we got a gas one for exactly that reason. I'm glad you're back with us now. Cindy -- robert tweedy <rtweedy2@xxxxxxx> wrote: > I notice the same thing.
