news say computer glitch and is expected to be up & running by 2:30. But that means all flights delayed. They're suggesting people check & re book.

Hopefully people who were in route to Miami to meet the evening flight to SXM will arrive OK, especially since that flight leaves later now.

Yes but virtually everything is controlled by computer now.

Ah those days when we manually did all things and the world revolved so smoothly. I often think that in some cases we were better off.

We have moved from a world where computers were convenient
to where they are essential. Many companies have used computers to replace people to the extent that the remaining people are not capable of running the operations. Get used to it. Soon you will start to see your power and water go out.

And soon only the self-sufficient will survive in a catastrophe.

Since this was several days ago I am going to lock this. If there is still a problem a new thread can be started.
