Like many others, we noticed our clocks flashing. Mysterious!

There were also blackouts last Thursday right around Packer kick-off time, then another Sunday morning around 8:45 AM, and now another this morning at around 4:15 AM.
Four power interruptions in five days. This is making it hard to swallow the enormous electricity bill they just sent me.
