Since there's gonna be no electricity on sunday, I'll stop by on saturday
evening and shut off all the computers. I'll turn everything on again
sunday night. 

On an unrelated note, for the last couple of days there's been some kind of
automated dialer that is calling every number in the area looking for either a
fax or a modem. This might be a hacker trying to break in to computers or some
advertising company trying to find faxes so they can send adverts for their
products. So, just to be safe, I've turned off the modems. I'll turn them
on again later.
