K4 Continued

When last we checked in on K4, we had reverted to a non-K4-based workflow system. It was slow and inefficient, but, in the end, it worked.

Over the weekend, the paper brought in two ridiculously expensive K4 experts (Well, if journalism doesn't work out...) and spent several hundred dollars getting it back online. Considering the efficiency to be gained from a productive workflow, it was, in my humble opinion, money well spent.

At about 4:30 Sunday afternoon, John came out of the central office, arms raised, and said that K4 was fixed. It was a moment of jubilation.

The moment lasted about seven hours before K4, for no apparent reason, died again. It was especially sad considering that had K4 not gone down, we were on pace to get out of there by about 1 or 1:30, by far the earliest of the semester. We finally got ouat of the office--Web-saving and all--at about 5:30.

The K4 crises continue.
