154.0. "More power problems?" by FOOT::RUSSELL (Speak softly, and carry a beagle.) Mon Jul 11 1988 16:01

    Would it be possible for Digital to pay the electricity bill
    on a regular basis to the local electricity board,
    and so prevent the seemingly common power outages we
    seem to be experiencing, for the last two weekends, 
    at least?

    		 could feed a 50p into it every now and then.)

    I BELIEVE THE PROBLEM IS PORBABLY DUE TO A FAULTY POWER BREAKER
    WHICH IS BEING CHANGED TONIGHT.
    THIS IS WHY ALL MACHINES ARE SHUTTING DOWN TONIGHT.

    P.S. it is considered to be "SHOUTING" if you use capitals - please
         unlock your keyboard...
