This is my power meter on my netbook. The reason for the picture is to remind me to include a comment about the perpetual power outages that I have experienced during my stay in Africa. Do they happen everyday? It seems so. When I think about it seems that they certainly average one every day. The one that prompted me to take this picture lasted over two hours and was the second one that day. Remember, we’ve been moving around Kenya and Tanzania during this time. These aren’t just localized to one area. I’ve seen power outages in lots of places, including my own home town, but these are quite frequent, relatively.
