It failed 10 minutes before the = first auction ended. Five out of fourteen items sold so we are not = complaining too much, what good would it do? I think I will threaten = the server with the largest screwdriver in my inventory and show it who = its daddy is. Now I know why we gave up computers to pursue meteorites. Fortunately = meteorites do not have sensors on them to detect when the best time = would be disintegrate to cause the maximum amount of stress. For those of you who bid, thank you and for those of you who didn't = thank you for being patient.
