The parking lot was pretty empty.
I've now been at Equinix during a blizzard, a power failure, a tornado,
and a hurricane.
It's very hard to tell one thing from the next. Except the power failure,
because the lights all went out.
Anyways, if the MRE's fail to satisfy, there's a hammer in my toolbox
and a vending machine in the customer silo, for anyone desperate to
avoid cannibalism. ;-) ;-)
