Extra Notes

• the cyberpower below the SS Toughbook may be at capacity. Or who knows. There was a power surge that tripped it, which brought the network down when the deal didn't come back up.
• something to keep an eye on. It coincided perhaps with an 8/21 visit.
• it is a recurring brown out but I'm not sure yet if it is hitting everything or just that UPS.
• probably need an extension to reconnect the HMP power.
