WWFM Stream Down Due to Power Outage

FOR THOSE OF YOU ACCUSTOMED TO ENJOYING WWFM – The Classical Network VIA OUR INTERNET STREAM AT WWFM.ORG:

It’s been brought to my attention by an online listener that he has been unable to connect to our stream. The reason for this is that the electricity is out at the college. We are broadcasting, thanks to a back-up generator, but unfortunately there is no internet. No lights or air conditioning, either. All in all, a sad state of affairs. We apologize for the inconvenience. Hopefully the power — and the streaming — will be back up soon. Thank you for your understanding!

Power Outage Sleep Deprivation and Solar Flare Prep

After thanking my lucky stars on Saturday that I don’t live in New York City (and not for the first time, I might add), a violent thunderstorm knocked out power last night until after 1 a.m. Rather than ensure an early and extended night’s sleep, as one might expect, a confluence of unfortunate circumstances (too much caffeine consumed too late in the day, an unusually late take-out dinner, chirping smoke alarms) made for a very long night. There is only so much reading one can do by flashlight.

Roughly three hours sleep, and the day is off to a rough start. Volunteer work in the morning, a script to be written, and recording to be done for tomorrow night’s “Picture Perfect.” All First World problems, I know. The internet is made for whining.

Good training for the impending solar flare that is fated to destroy all electronics. Nessun dorma!

The apocalyptic forecast:
