I know Jason lives in Austin but I believe the RS servers are in Houston.

I do hope that all our friends here on Beta and RS that live in the areas affected by the Hurricane are all safe.

I heard on the news that almost all of the power is out in Houston except for some of downtown and the medical center or something like that. It will take them 2-3 weeks at least to restore the power to everyone. If the power to the server is out.. then that means it may also take this long to get them back online if they are indeed in Houston. We will see...

I Hope it doesn't take 3 weeks!

I want to work on my Slug!

umm... What do you guys call your Rubberslug's in public??

Do you call it a slug? A rubber? a gallery? or a rubberslug?

Gah! I hope it doesn't take 3 weeks either. I'd love to see your gallery Roboflonne. ^_^

I just say gallery when talking about my RS, though slug sounds fun too.

Yes, indeed. That's the one I use to refer to my gallery all the time in public.

When I make a donation to RS, I tell others that I need to buy more Rubbers.

When I want to change the color scheme on my site, I say that I'm going to get a pink rubber.

When my coworkers glance at my computer and ask what I'm doing, I tell them that I'm looking for rubbers.

And when I'm asked what site format I prefer to have my gallery hosted on, I tell that I like to use rubber.

............

Nah, I just call it a gallery.

In Brazoria County, emergency management officials said the main power line for the Texas/New Mexico grid was down. CenterPoint Energy said 90 percent of its customers were without electricity and it could take a month or more to get power restored to all of them.

A month to restore power! I feel bad for the residents. That's awful.

All our thoughts and well wishes are with the folks in the path of Hurricane Ike, looks like quite a clean-up ahead, but the Texans are up to it, they are awesome people!! Please be safe!

Well, I guess I won't have to feel guilty about not updating my gallery for a while.

You might know the thread is in the one area of the forum I never go to. The website area.

Thanks y'all. I'm from Houston, but living in CO. I still have a lot of family there and they pretty much said the same as has already been mentioned. This latest storm was a doozy.
