I was in a computer room at dec when a power failure

In my computer room the silence is punctuated by the very loud sound of our
fire dampers dropping and the Operations Manager (ie me) saying something
to the effect of "golly gosh" :-). We've recently gone up market and have
60 odd minutes of UPS, so the only problem is my workstations crashing....
The lastime I heard that
deafining silence the engine on my plane stopped in the air! It's not the
loud but the sudden lack of it.
I'm almost too afraid to ask about the plane problem, but fill us in!
