Kyle:

Did you safely get my e-mail regarding the flooding disasters
in Binghamton?

All electricity in Binghamton is shut down because of the
floods. Our computer had battery-backup, but the telephone
lines collapsed and the computer powered down.  I doubt
if the T-1 lines would have worked anyway.

We are now pumping out the water, and have arranged
for office space on higher ground.   Our server should
be back in operation in several days.

We are searching for better catastrophe planning. In addition
to an automatic a gas generator & gasline supplies, we will
see if a "dish" operation could continue internet service
in a natural disaster in the future.

My own home office is in New York City, and is unaffected.

Chuck Hamacher is getting this news item on the Serialist
listserve at any moment.

Please confirm receipt!
