It has been quiet today - guess everyone's doing other things today.  I 
spent some time doing recovery on a dying 1 TB hard drive (hateful) and 
assembling furniture from Ikea.

Let it stay that way for a while, makes me waste less time reading 
newsgroups... I'd complain more when there are 200 posts a day :)

But of course if you complained more when there's 200 posts a day, then 
there would be more than 200 posts a day. :-)

they forgot to include in the factory? :D

Oh, I wish it were that simple. :-)

Unfortunately, I then had a second hardware failure last night - one of 
my UPS' died.  It's not been a good hardware month for me.
