On the other hand, it's an extremely environmental friendly house, like it heats itself and the water through energy it extracts from the earth. But yeah, they definitely need to rethink how much power to give to a computer.Naschhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11626329611709684940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-9057705181775134092010-10-10T08:23:13.489+02:002010-10-10T08:23:13.489+02:00Nasch, don't say we didn't warn you and yo...Nasch, don't say we didn't <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kkyUMmNl4hk" rel="nofollow"><b>warn you and your in-laws</b></a>.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-83562357310285251972010-10-10T05:28:34.407+02:002010-10-10T05:28:34.407+02:00Nasch, that sounds really complicated.

I'm in chul, so were talking three days of nothing working and of course we counted on being able to cook on chag. The electricity actually was working, but the computer is in control of that, so we couldnt use it. In the end, some tech in another country logged into the house and got some things running. My husband and I went to our home to bring all the lamps we could find, so we could actually use the electricity. My father in law spent the day runnign around trying to keep control. But as you said, he was the boss, deeming where all the lights should go and my husband did the halacha side, so it all worked out in the end.Naschhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11626329611709684940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-10563284967451998692010-10-10T00:19:47.986+02:002010-10-10T00:19:47.986+02:00It happens in the states, too, so you're not i...It happens in the states, too, so you're not immune in Jerusalem.
