Shivers

Since moving here, I've become a pretty fervent backer-upper, as I expect with each passing day to be relieved of my valuable possessions, but I only got halfway through this before I starting burning more discs double-quick. Variations in power supply can slowly fry my baby? Well, hell. Georgia's rotten electricity situation (subject of the 2003 documentary Power Trip) is better than it used to be, but the Georgians I know still unplug all their appliances when they're not being used. I unplug my computer for sure when I leave the apartment but what about these creeping, secret surges that are amassing and metastisizing as we speak? Isn't there anything I can do, doc?
