I'm pretty sure you've got aliens, and I don't mean illegal ones. "We are not alone." ;-) cheers, frank --- Original Message --- From: John Sessoms Sent: November 26, 2011 11/26/11 To: pdml@pdml.net Subject: OT: Strange things going on? Yesterday I found both of my computers shut down. Both UPS had shut off. The only thing I can think of that would cause that to happen is if the power went off, but that should have caused the UPS alarms to sound. I know that they did not, because the alarms have to be manually reset. The beeping gets on my nerves and it's an aggravation to get down on my hands and knees & crawl under the desk to reset them. Plus, the clocks on two microwaves, a stove, two clock radios & two light timers were still showing the correct time (except for the stove that I still have on DST - I'll change it as soon as I can remember where I put the F*g instructions). Point is, all of them have to be reset if there is a power outage and none of them had to be reset. So, what would cause the two UPS to shut down? Then, just now I went into the kitchen to get a cup of coffee, and the coffee maker had not worked. It was unplugged. I know it was plugged in yesterday when I used it. And I didn't unplug it afterwards. I hope I'm not going mad. It'd take too much effort to lock myself in the attic. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
