Thanks. I'm in Morgantown and normally see ~950ish up and down over wired w/ gig. Ping times and speeds in tests are being all over the place tonight. Hopefully it's just some temporary weirdness and will be back to normal in morning.

Finished watching the new version of "A Different World." I liked it. A bit rushed since it's only 10 episodes but has nice tie-ins to original season. I am disappointed they didn't try to do an updated version of the iconic intros from OG Seasons 2-6. youtu.be/I9lVlt5FpYc?si=Q93O…

His mismanagement of university finances helped set "academic transformation" in motion. Also, his complete inability to read the room didn't help.
