The #sc25 wifi is having a really tough time this year. I'm this far from an access point and my laptop can't keep a stable connection.

If you use a St Louis Metrolink terminal, and try to pay with a phone wallet, it reboots the windows 95 and you need to try again with a different terminal

"Yeah but it's done for the season. There *is* a Dickens fair, though."

Any chance you've got a friend that can run over in CD 8? I'm starving for a candidate that has the juice to post and wasn't alive during WW2
