Honestly, this is an administrators list. Most of us here are going to very coldly and to the fact discuss the impact of the outage. If you are overly sensitive or feel the need for a sleeve to cry on about the human side of the Northwest storm then I'd suggest you unsubscribe and head over to Fark for a group hug. Valve should provide us with a reasonable explanation as to why they have all of their eggs in one geographical basket. They've had nearly ten years to plan and deploy preventative measures against such a failure.

Over a million people without power or heat int the middle of winter. Christmas planning for lots of those are out the window because of lost wages, loss of life, and loss of basic services, and people are whining about not being able to play a computer game for a few days, and then exorcising Valve about not having things back online immediately. Lets think about things based on the effects on real people lives instead of using a tragedy to puff one's resume. It's nice to see the spirit of the holidays on display. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
