Old tech, new tech, none of it is behaving.

Old: we have no hot water. There's a sign up in the lobby about emergency repairs, which at least tells me they're aware of it, but that doesn't get me a hot shower, or clean spoons. Or heat, for that matter: the problem is the boiler, not the pipes. At least the stove works, so I have tea, while the mugs hold out.

New: Someone I met Sunday gave me her card, because there may be job openings at her company. I sent email a few hours ago, saying hi and where should I send a resume. It bounced back, Panix reporting "unable to relay" and "user unknown." Will try again later, or maybe ask Vijay or Soren to forward a note.
