I’m just testing something out here. It looks like a lot of the threads on the board are posting the date as the seventh. But it’s only the sixth. (Right?) Maybe I’m just living backwards through time now, like Merlin?

Well, it’ll be 4/7 sooner or later, I guess we’re just getting to it sooner.

The techs won’t be able to get to this until the morning, at which point it’ll probably be 4/8. (Here, anyway.)

But I’ll get this note to them.

Sorry for the weirdness.
