[Ted Langdell]

Congratulations, John,

Maybe you should bring one of the working machines to AMIA in St.  
Louis, in Nov?
You have portable air.

I'd be a little concerned that the electricians might cut power to the  
air in the middle of a transfer and leave you with precious little  
time to push "Stop" and get the head spun down before your  
compressor's reservoir ran out of breath.

Or, that of they dumped power to the machine's supply, you'd have a  
"no-fun" situation with a tape in motion.

Perhaps someone's had some experience with this type of thing... power  
outage in the days before a lot of stations had gennys to jump in?
