====================
I just got this from Holger, he at least did not pull the plug and left. 
Hoping that his feed wakes up !

Hello All,

I'm sorry to tell ya all that all Fido-nodes in Sweden are
off-line since july 3:rd. My node hangs on the swedish
net and consequently you have heard nothing from me.

Fidonet redundancy isn't what it once was and now when
there is only one RC (Region Controller) for Sweden and
he has left his system on the loose there's nobody else
that can pick up his mantle until he comes back from his
semester or what reason there is and can take care of his
system, we can only wait.

In the mean time we are "enjoying" the hottest summer we
have had for years with tropical nights and all. Mid day
temperature hasn't been below 20ø C during the entire month
of july peaking today mid day at 29ø. Afternoon temperatures
are of course hotter. No rain since June 11:th keeps the lawn
mowers parked.

We are not used to such temperatures except for single days
but it's a little bit better when we can launch the boat and go
out on the sea and visit some island for swimming and a coffe
break.

Luckily my computers have not been hit by the heat wave but
we have windows open on both sides of the apartment to have
air flowing through. Still, 25ø C in the bedroom at night.

I'll be back as soon as we get Fidonet moving again in this part
of the world.

A nice summer to ya all.

Holger
