My name is Penfold. I took a nap and woke up in 1995. Am I mad? In a coma? Or just suffering from a high speed internet outage? All I know is a I have to fight to get back to where I can get the weather without resorting to turning on the TV.

There is another invention, besides tv. It is called "radio".

If we're going to go retro, I could just look out a window. Sadly, that did nothing to salve my geeky pain.

Thank you. Your heartfelt sympathy is a true comfort.

I was verging on distraught yesterday; not only couldn't I send out a Sunday Sherlock, but inviting someone to visit me without high speed wireless Internet feels like the 21st century equivalent of asking someone to stay at a home without indoor plumbing. From there, the Life on Mars jokes wrote themselves.

Fortunately, it's back up and running!

Oh, Lord, we would've had to talk! The tragedy!!!!

Glad you got it back. That was a bullet dodged.

I was thinking I hadn't heard from you or seen you appear on my flist for a while! I hope your high-speed comes back online soon, or you wake from your coma... whichever comes first *g*

Thanks! It's all sorted now, though it has given me a nice reminder how thankful I should be for continuous, wireless, high speed internet. The dial-up days, how did we ever manage?!
