Re: [GSAS-Member] Storm Power Outages

Man, sorry to hear that.

My office in Bellevue is still without power so I have the day off. I 
went in to rescue any survivors though... the tank was 47F, which is 
cold enough that it hurts to touch. Amazingly, 2 neon swordtails were 
still alive, though not moving much. They are at home now but 
considering what they went through I wouldn't be surprised if they don't 
make it.

My poor ropefish didn't make it. I loved those guys. They were finally 
eating out of my hand.
