    From Gamgee@VERT/PALANT to All on Fri Sep 25 16:58:01 2020
    Hi all, just an FYI that my board (Palantir BBS) is back online after a nasty encounter with Hurricane Sally. No power for 3 days and no cable/internet for 10 days... Just got the cable back this afternoon and all seems to be working again. Still have trees down everywhere you look, and fences, but most stuff is functioning again. The joys of the "Salt Life"! :-)

    back.

    Thanks. Well, "comfortable" is a relative term, had no A/C but
    thankfully it wasn't super-hot for those days. Still a little
    warmer than desired for sleeping. I have a generator that I ran intermittently to keep fridges/freezers cold so we didn't lose any
    food. It wasn't the worst we've ever experienced, but not fun.
    Cooked on the grill and had camping (propane) lanterns for light.
