i realize that my hard drives are running pretty hot but don't pay too much attention to it. some time later i hear a loud explosion or something and turn around and the whole computer is on fire. i get down on teh ground and start blowing it out. i put out the front part of the case (where all the cards are ... it's already opened up) and then crawl around to the other side to try and blow out hte drives. someone in the office comes over with a spray bottle and puts it out that way. i worry about the water.

the top drive is totally mangled.. the front of it is completely in pieces and the second drive below it is similarly damaged.

i realize that the cydonia source is on the drive and the most recent backup was made before i went to europe.. about 2 months old. i get really upset and pound my fist against the wall a few times. charley and eric are walking over. i feel a little guilty.

i think that the changes will go a lot faster the second since i've already done it once, but it's still weeks of work.
