Thanks to everyone involved. Great job! And a special thanks to
Ken Ascher for allowing Grex to stay so long at CE. He was there
when Grex needed a home, badly, and never charged us rent. Very
nice indeed.

Rugs collect and disperse dust, and provide habitats for mites (bugs,
you know?). Ever seen rugs in clean rooms or operating theatres?

Grex's dungeon is neither a clean room nor an operating theatre.
All of the places I've worked for the last 15 years, have had rugs,
and we had computers in all of them.
The dust that settles onto a bare concrete floor will get kicked up
anytime anyone wanders in. OTOH, dust will settle down *into* a carpet and
get trapped there. If we had a cleaning service that came by every 2
days and swept/vacumed the dungeon, this wouldn't be an issue, but I
suspect that the dungeon will rarely, if ever, get cleaned.
And let me restate, I'm not talking about wall-to-wall carpeting here!!!
I'm talking about a couple of throw rugs to keep our feet warm and to
reduce the echos in the room. Concrete is very electrically conductive,
you can't build up a static charge from a 3'x3' piece of rug sitting
on a concrete floor.

This move was sooooo smoooooooth ....
How smooth was it ???
It was so smooth that the Exlax didn't even wake up.
Thankxx to all the participants - and expecially to the
participants' coordinator, popcorn. And to the other project
sub-coordinators as well.

We can try using the rug, and we'll see what happens. Since we know
that Grex doesn't spuriously reboot itself, and since this is static
season, we'll be more likely to see it now than at any other point in
the year.

Get cotton rugs. Can't get a charge out of them.
