Well, other than the system clock being off by a day and an hour, and 
not noticing it until later this evening.  The time is now set 
correctly, but we sent out some messages dated in the future, which 
might confuse a few spam blockers.

When are you guys going to figure out how to send messages that *really
are* from the future?

Good question.  I guess we'll know sometime in advance, though.  Or 
rather, everyone we will have sent messages to will.  We might be the last 
to know...

We'd been talking about rebooting the main Phoenyx server (and installing more 
memory and things) since it's got an uptime of over a year. Jokingly, when this 
was pointed out, I said "I'll get the fire extinguisher."  So this morning, the 
Phoenyx household was rocked by an explosion.  Well, okay, not that bad... a 
transformer down the street went boom.  This has happened before, and the power 
company had it fixed before the UPS ran out.  Not this time - we had almost 
five hours of downtime while three of the power company's biggest trucks 
re-strung overhead lines.  Everything's back up and happy now, though.
