Auugh!

I'm chatting with , and the TrekToday site owner when there's this noise and the power goes out. And I go outside and walk down the street and the air is full of smoke. A transformer blew, there are fire trucks everywhere...

I'm on 's laptop on the battery dialed over the phone to AOL. Sounds like we may be without power for several hours. Waaah! See you after dinner, hopefully, and pardon my rudeness in vanishing!
