just a question... i dont even know if they are aloud the act of god clause 
anymore... and no i do not subscribe to a monotheistic religion, i am infact 
a member of a rather mis-represented religion, but thanks for the

as for surge protectors, how much money do you think i have... i will use what 
little surge protection i have applied by my accomodation manager, and save 
my money up for my replacement items
