It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

Of course...now it seems that everything works okay. This is especially embarrassing since I'm the Network Admin for the division. I must need sleep...or some Patron and a Pacifico!!!

Ok, all you disbeliever. Here is the end-all-be-all answer!

NO!!! You can never underpower a sub. Why you ask?

By turning my volume down, I'm actually underpowering it.

If this were true, then subs would be blowing right and left every time someone turned their volume down!

Thank you, and goodnight!!!
