To my opponents

Writing from work; my utility service has been compromised by flood/storms...wreaking havoc actually...road to my house is closed off -have to take a crazy detour to get to work...electricity is intermitent and internet connect hasn't been possible in last 24 hours. Not a good time to live at the base of a hill! Please be patient.

i just finished driving 150 @#$%^#% miles only to find that all roads leading to upstate ny were flooded, so i got to turn around and drive back another 150. then got to sit on the pa turnpike on my way back home. normal 3 hour drive turned into a #$$%^#@$ 6+ hour ordeal. :mad::blab: :(

but at least i dont live at the bottom of a hill. :)

Hey Ed,

Had the same problem in 99 during Hurricane Floyd. Had to go on a service call over in Tarboro,NC. Only to be turned around because of all the roads were flooded. Do you want some waterwings to help ya'll to get through:laugh: . Hope ya'll get some dry weather soon.

Guys

I am alive! Talking to you from a laundrymat hotspot. Internet access should be worked out 24-48 hours -I hope. I have most of your turns done, just need a connection from home to get them out. Sorry for the delays...my safety was pretty much assured through the whole ordeal, but the infrastructure (roads, utilities, deliveries etc etc) have been affected greatly...this are wonky still! (can't drink my water for instance!)
Talk to you soon

Brian

Dear opponents,

I'm back up and running, so if you don't get a file from me today, saturday July 8, I'll lick a toad in the town square! :D


No, really, if you don't here from me, let me know about it -I think I have all files covered and should be sent out, but just incase...
