      Everything about it makes perfect sense except “floodway”. And, if I buzzword hard enough, I could see that meaning something like the Slashdot effect/hug of death.

      … I’m going to start using it that way.

        I develop software for mining (ore) operations, so a floodway didn’t sound entirely implausible.

        I’ve also spent all week doing tech-support because I’m the only one that’s not on vacation, so my brain is a little fried.

          Ah, that’s even more acute. You definitely win this round.

          EDIT: Also, hope your tech support ends today (or at least soon) and you don’t have to deal with it again.

            I’m in central Europe, so I’ve been off the clock for like, 9 hours or so at this point. I should really sleep and let my brain recuperate a little.
