Empty and <em>quiet</em>. I'm sorry you had to go so long without it and I'm happy to hear that you are back online. Looking over your Flickr photographs. Spooky shards.

The management was alerted that the power is available and they will be re-connecting the complex to the Houston grid by noon. I officially love our management for going the extra mile and renting those generators. It has made the last week so much more comfortable.

I'd love to know when mine is supposed to be back. The last CenterPoint map I saw said my zip code was due to be back by Monday. Well, it's Tuesday & I still got BUPKISS! I hate Ike.
