Gotta love printers; for a business model that seams built around giving away printers to sell the ink you'd think it'd be easier to get new cartridges. We recently had to retire the printer in our lab because the old toner we had stored had gone bad (I'm guessing whoever was supposed to turn the containers over every X months either decided he didn't need to or got laid off without handing the duty off) and because it was old and they could the only vendor still selling toner for it wanted $1200 for them. OMG | :OMG:

the new printer works, but it's a soulless desktop model; it's predecessor was a floor model that looked like R2D2 after a binge on the candybox that normally fuels all work in the lab. Sigh | :sigh:
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Were you affected by the geomagnetic storms this past weekend?
Communication disruptions, electrified pipes, random unexplained blue-screens in Windows - the list of effects is terrifying.
