I was given a tour of the Stanton Energy Center power plant back in '95. From the top of the boiler building you could easily pick out the VAB on the coast, 30+ miles away. It was a neat experience for sure.

The Vehicle Assembly Building at Kennedy Space Center. It's used to "stack" (assemble) spacecraft prior to launch. It is pretty darn big: Vehicle Assembly Building

Storms have been pretty intense the last couple of days; we've had some crazy lightning here in east OC.

This is why I gave up trying to run my own email server. It became clear it was turning into a racket quite a while ago. I would hear from someone that they didn't receive an email, so I'd check with their provider and sure enough I'd been blackholed.

I'd go through all the steps to clear everything, re-send the message and it would go. Send a second message and my server was instantly blackholed again for "spamming" or "suspected open relay" or some other reason. All the "Big Guys" as you call them of course carved out exceptions for each other, but no matter how many security signatures or other measures I implemented it was basically an instant lockout.

It got to the point where I was forced to sign on with a "Big" provider for routing.
