Geez. Is it unusually slow today or what? Maybe Isabel

is keeping our Atlantic DUers off line. Could that be it?


(Or have I just drunk too much coffee, making me relatively speedy?)

1. everyone is practicing their pirate talk

the swabs...

[goobergunch]

2. Probably

My power just came back on 25 minutes ago.

3. Could be Isabel...

Could be all the young'uns have gone back to school and are no longer at their leisure posting all day.

Could be folks are in intensive care wards all over the country being treated for 2nd and 3rd degree burns being inflicted over at GD.

7. Home from school today

My third hurricane day ever.

4. You're Right

Over 4 million without power on the East Coast. The flamers in GD are reduced to using megaphones and morse code on flashlights.

Check it out.

5. WOW! Is this accurate??? I love it.

Each smiley represents how many DUers? Where is this tucked away. Damned sweet thing!

6. The Map?

Courtesy of GregW. He posted it a while back and I kept the link. I just hope I'm not running up his bandwidth costs.

On Edit: I believe the Admins provided him with a list of DUer cities.

8. I'll not pass it on. But it's my wallpaper now.

Would still like to know how many DUer's a smiley face represents.

11. EarlG said it was just contributors, and prior to the last fund drive

so not all of us, but probably pretty representative.

13. wow. I see myself smiling up from Sunset, LA

But I'm stuck behind a guy (or girl?) from Lafayette.

Yes. Representative of our better natures.

9. My power's back on...

has been for two hours now.

10. Good to hear! I was without electricity a week last year

. . . another hurricane: Lili in Louisiana.

Welcome back everyone!

12. Arrrrrrrrr. I'm aboard, cap'n!
