My power flickered 3 or 4 times. I was pissed, it kept resetting my internet radio.

Wasn't enough to cause the computer to reset, just make the flights flicker and pissed off the cable modem.

Yep. It tried 3 times, but couldn't clear the fault.

Over the past week I've had about 3 or 4 outages. Most were flickers or under a minute. One outage was about an hour.

Progress Energy can't get their act together.

you should start complaining when you are without power for hours or days.

6/16/2009 8:34:35 AM

SO TUFF

6/16/2009 8:34:58 AM

Yes. I've started to check this:

from time to time. Looks like they are just having a lot problems in our area. There's always a new outage in the same small geographic area.

6/16/2009 8:38:26 AM

i'm sure they're working on fixing it

6/16/2009 8:39:22 AM
