Thanks!
It was a shock for sure, and I doubt it will ever be repeated.

Hopefully when it is repeated (since you just tempted Fate) your system will be able to handle the shock.

My brain was at least working today! I’m grateful for that! Some days, the gray lint and the dyslexia take over and I have no idea what I’m doing.
Nully is always good at this sort of thing! ;o]

I’m back at the survival camp location. Frank and Kathleen should be here in ten minutes.

Y’know that thing where you have this kinda complex, technical system all sorted out, accommodating the various needs of many involved users, and you have it tuned, and working like a Swiss watch for months and months and months, and nobody else cares to know how it’s all set up, because no time / no interest / too technical / >lame excuse here< but you made decent documentation and put it in the archive against the fateful day...
...and then someone came along without asking, knowing this system was in place and functional, but too smart by half for their own good, thinking they were going to make a good thing better...
[cue the ominous, minor key music, here]
...and they took the archive offline...
[more ominous music]
...and on their oblivious way to tech Nirvana, they cratered the system.
[crescendo of crashing cymbals, thundering tympani, blaring horns — sudden silence]
...and now you’re The Bad Guy because you made a Swiss watch that met everyone’s needs but wasn’t fool-proof?

Frank and Kathleen were a survival success. The instructor was impressed by Frank’s knowledge of trees.

Fool proof systems regularly underestimate the ingenuity of fools.
I haven’t been put in that situation because I don’t make useful things. I’m just a PM.
