not strictly permie.. but i know everyone who is reading this can
participate!

This Saturday, May 3rd, is International Shutdown Day.

"It is obvious that without computers we would find our life extremely
difficult, maybe even impossible.
If they disappeared for just one day, would we be able to cope?

Be part <http://www.shutdownday.org/takeaction/> of one of the biggest
global experiments ever to take place on the Internet.
The idea behind Shutdown Day is to find out how many people can go without a
computer for one whole day, and what will happen if we all participate!

*Shutdown your computer on 03 May 2008 and find out!"*
