2. You need to turn the computer off anyway.
Storms like that can blow out your whole system. Should unplug TV and other stuff, too.

13. Those storms started in Colorado yesterday...
The produced half inch diameter hail. It looked like it had snowed. It was such a humid airmass, it felt like I was in a tropical storm. This is in Colorado too. Global Warming really does effect the entire world.

10. It sounds like you have it well in hand.
There's only so much that a mere mortal can do.

What airplane are you working on now Karl? I just really dig old airplanes, although I'm like the old Harry Chapin song, flyin' my taxi...
