You can't blame that on an unreliable power source - your machine should be able to operate reliably under all (...) (21 years ago, 25-Aug-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

And then I put in fresh batteries on game day. For project X the energizer (...) (21 years ago, 24-Aug-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
