Sealeopard Sealeopard KiX Master Registered: 2001-04-25 Posts: 11165 Loc: Boston, MA, USA	I'm fine. According to CNN and local newspapers, it's limited to York City, other parts of Northeast, Cleveland, Detroit, Albany, and Toronto and Ottawa in Canada. Maybe one of the huge overland lines that go from Canada to NYC came down? _________________________ There are two types of vessels, submarines and targets.

Shawn Shawn Administrator Registered: 1999-08-13 Posts: 8611	Hehee, thats what it felt like ... Les, you would already know that our premier has declared a "state of emergency" here. Basically it means that we're all supposed to stay home and not go to work. So downtown Toronto looks pretty much closed-down. Guess I got nothing to do today 'cept surf KORG and maybe do some kixscripting ... heheee ....

Shawn Shawn Administrator Registered: 1999-08-13 Posts: 8611	hehee, sure, but i got no place to post it ... KFO is still having other issues (phew) ... Seriously, briefly chatted with Rod earlier, he is having his own issues with the KFO ISP but would be nice to get an update status from Rod himself, i don't think it will be a good news story but will let Rod explain
