Ha, you are a quick reader -- you obviously picked up on the first version of this post, before I pulled the kaput line and added the line about the email server.
It AMAZES me, how oxygen-deprived I feel if I can't just connect to the net. And I don't regard myself as a webhead, either....
Well, the net connection is back (though I do seem to be getting more site failures than normal), but email is totally hosed, both from the laptop's wireless email client and the desktop (ie, hardwired) email client. And if I go to the system's mainframe email site, it just hangs. I think they've (which is to say, I've) got some serious email problems.
The sensation is like when you have a power failure, and say Ha Ha, I have a wireless connection... and then think And without power, how's that wireless router working? Its not that I'm a big emailer, its just that one of the eternal certainties of the world has gotten shaken.

Oooh, I learned something! I didn't know the origination of "kaput". Cool!
