The damage to the line was more subtle, and it took many months and a large number of service call before all the damaged line was eventually replaced.<BR/><BR/>I now run my PC and modem through a power board with both telephone line and power surge protectors, which I'm hoping will help prevent future damage like this.Pamela Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01312636374960799328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22019950.post-1163520859373230942006-11-15T03:14:00.000+11:002006-11-15T03:14:00.000+11:00I think lightening storms are beautiful and I have...I think lightening storms are beautiful and I have great respect for the damage they can cause. We do not often get very severe ones here but we have to watch for the forest fires that they cause. I am glad that you are okay and that your knitting needles were not damaged :-)Punkinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11009133880399146011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22019950.post-1163502975726063532006-11-14T22:16:00.000+11:002006-11-14T22:16:00.000+11:00Woo!
