  Look, Don't Touch
Everyone knows not to touch museum displays. Well ... almost everyone. Watch the disastrous results when a man examines a hanging clock a little too closely.

Summer Thunderstorms and Your Electronics
Thunderstorms and Your Electronics Thunderstorm season is here and that means lightning. And lightning means possible power surges. 3 Rivers recommends that customers use a surge protector with their computers (as well as TVs and any other sophisticated home electronic devices). Computers are filled with voltage-sensitive components that a power surge could damage very easily. At minimum, this damage will shorten the life of your computer, and could wipe out all of your saved data. Computers are very expensive items, and the data they hold is often irreplaceable, so it makes sense to invest in a quality surge protector from your local hardware or electronics store.

Another good idea is to keep a "hard-wired" telephone handy. That is, a phone with the hand set actually connected to the phone with a cord, not a cordless phone. A power surge or thunder storm could cause a cordless phone to seem like it has "gone dead." It may act like the phone was left off hook, but you will not know that the telephone line itself is fine unless you unplug all cordless phones, answering machines, routers, etc., and then connect a hard-wired phone to the phone jack to see if you get a dial tone back. This is always a good thing to check before calling 3 Rivers with a possible outage.
