as stated elsewhere, we've postponed shutting down for another 12 hours or so. Once we have a better indication of what to expect, we'll make a decision on when to shut down if it neccessary.

Thankfully, I will be spending this blackout on an island, surrounded by booze, boats, and babes.

Ahhh. Here's to my last vacation as a free worker, and good luck to those in the path of the storm. We had a good scare over here on Tuesday, total island shutdown, yet the storm barely grazed us.

a 'hatch' is like a door at the top of a stairwell on a boat.

A batten is a piece of wood (now fiberglass) that makes a sail hold its shape.

 

In stormy seas they would lay sail cloth over the hatches and use the battens to hold them down, making things water tight in stormy seas.

 

 

*yes, I used to sail on an old school ship.
