   NB> Yes, that is a blessing... :) I noticed that the bbs stayed up... :)   
      
   I have everything on UPS units to at least keep things running when there are   
   power fluctuations and short power outages.   
      
   A few years ago when we had a huricane, we lost power for over 24 hours but   
   you would never know.  I had the entire house running on own portable   
   generator - including the server that runs the BBS, website, etc.   
      
   NB> Bbs question, btw... For a while now, the weather report at login has   
   NB> been at least partly unreadable, since it doesn't pause after the first   
   NB> screen, just quickly scrolls the whole thing to the end... seems to me   
   NB> it used to pause... There are other places where there doesn't seem to   
   NB> be a necessary pause kicking in, too... like help screens, bulletins...   
      
   Next time you login, from the main menu type "D" for defaults.  Just ensure   
   you have the [Pause] on pages turned on.  I have seen that get turned off by   
   accident before, even on my account.
