From: Dekka Raymaker if each post took on average ten minutes, inclusive of reading, posting and re-reading, 19,940 posts equates to 138 days (24 hour long days) of posting. who the heck takes 10 min to read before posting and reread after?

From: CarlCorey Colman Actually, "five 9's" or 99.999% is the gold standard for totally mission critical business systems. That works out to about 5 minutes downtime a year. That's just not a practical goal for most systems. That said, I agree that the current grid reliability is indeed better now than at any time I can recall, this weekend's turmoil notwithstanding. It has been a while since I had to actually calculate and work with the downtime numbers -- I could not remember if the 5 9's was total digits or digits past the decimal.

From: Brenda Connolly Actually, I'm thinking of stopping at 19,999...I think it would be a fitting way to exit this madness. It would but that kind of cold turkey can be hard to suffer.. Shall I get something medicinal out for when the time comes?

From: LittleMe Jewell who the heck takes 10 min to read before posting and reread after? Possibly the "10 minutes" figure comes from an assumption that people might read a thread before posting in it....if you average 'posting in a thread with fewer than 30 posts, the reading of which might take less than 5 minutes' with 'posting in a thread with several dozen posts', then 10 minutes per post (for reading, writing and proofing) seems not-unreasonable. |

Well, if you pop in often enough to skim things, you often only have a few new posts to read before posting. And there are a few people that I do just skip right over without reading what they say. And I only sometimes proofread, depending on my mood.

The OP is a whine, yes.
The point she was making is....(I read it this way.)
None of the responses she received said why the grid was down. She jumped to a conclusion that LL was hiding the fact that they were responsible for it and she wanted and apology.
Still an ass.

LL could get SL to a point of "five 9's ( no, really... stop laughing ) but I'm pretty sure that none of us could afford the resulting fees... |

To the OP:
Proxima, this is what just about EVERY weekend used to be like, a couple of years ago.
I'm sorry it was a bad one...I was inconvenienced too. But for folks who have been around a while, it almost brings a little smile of nostalgia along with the frustration.

And for those of us that remember EVERY weekend being a mess, times like this past one remind us of how good it really is now - how far LL really has come in grid stability.

i remember finally getting used to all the glitches then a new viewer upgrade came out and had to get used to a whole new set of glitches until after awhile you could spot old glitches coming back..the weekends were the worst but there was always something going on back then..it runs so much better now.. i loved the crosseyed glitch i think the best..you could make some really good pictures with that one |
