Ken Lawrence Runs SEPTA — SEPTA trains across the Philadelphia region are cancelled today, Oct. 6, and the Route 101 trolley remains closed due to the Sept. 25 accident that injured 10 near the Scenic Road station in Springfield.
That was when an power line fell on it. We can’t remember such a think happening in the 60-plus years we have resided in Springfield.
The closures are per orders of the National Transportation Safety Board.

Once the year 2000 happened and the universe yawned, my thoughts turned to getting a home email. Yahoo had two great selling points; it was free, free, free and had unlimited capacity! Full disclosure; I’m not exactly a hoarder but I’m still trying to unload around 500 of my 45 rpm records from the days.
Anyway, around a while ago, I received the same fatal notice, as millions of others, that I had until Aug. 27 to get back to 20 GB. Though this was changed three different times in September, the ax finally fell a month later. One could have chosen to pay but, like many single men (and women) think “why pay for something I’ve been getting for free?”
While I frantically forwarded photos and other weighty attachments to my other emails, the search began for other options. Well, if the former me was around, the Yukon Jack would of come out. Instead, this me choose a few new free emails.
Which Spock used to say “does not compute?” I think it was Mister.
By the way, it’s a good idea to keep a list of emails and passwords someplace other than in your head, especially if, like most of us, you have more than one e-mail.
What this reduction exercise clarified for me is that there were email senders that are no longer important to me and those that still are. The important ones now go to my AOL email and the formerly important are in Yahoo, which may never return to below capacity (though there are 10 minutes a day devoted to deletions, , from my 10,000 email inbox.+
There’s also an option with Thunderbird which I’m slowly learning how to use.
Answer to yesterday’s William Lawrence Sr Cryptowit puzzle: Ah, September! You are the doorway to the season that awakens my soul but I must confess that I love you only because you are a prelude to my beloved October.

I had a long-talk with my friend Don Rosenberg yesterday, Sept. 29. It was the first one in about a year. It wasn’t for lack of trying. My phone calls went to voice mail and were not returned. Neither were my emails.
A few weeks ago I made some changes to my communication system. I called Don and, lo and behold, he called me right back.
He wondered where I had been.
Don, who lives in Los Angeles, met when I reached out to him after watching his YouTube channel.
Don, like myself, had his life horribly altered in an incident involving an illegal alien. I wanted to let him know he was not alone.
Don suffered more, though. His son was killed.
Both incidents were were vehicle accidents with the drivers being illegals. Neither was credentialed to be on the road.
Yesterday, I learned that Don had also internet harassment. He said he has gotten cyber-threats with untraceable IP addresses. He also told me website — which involves listing victims of illegals — had been hacked and taken down.
It’s AVIAC.us and is the process of being restored.
My persecution mostly involved isolation. I was cut off from clients, friends and family. One friend who I met by chance asked why I hadn’t returned her calls for months. She had left voice mails.
Another told me that she had been emailing me monthly after I replied, today, saying it was the first I had gotten from her in well over a year.
A while back I was looking for an apartment. It puzzled me that none of my inquiries were answered. Since I made my changes I have been swamped by the places I was looking out.
To those who say it’s a mere technical glitch or a failure to understand out to use technology, I’ll point out that my bank account was looted of several thousand dollars — which it made good on following a police report — and that numerous courtesy accounts were found to have been changed to an AOL email that I hadn’t used since college and I thought was defunct.
When I went to cancel my Planet Fitness membership, I learned that I actually had two accounts, one not merely with my defunct address but with the a landline number that I had long forgotten.
Obviously, I was not receiving notices.
I filed the recommended online complaints with the FBI. I have an actual hope they might find who is responsible for the very real fear and misery I experienced.
Before you dismiss it, imagine yourself being cut off from just about everything you cared about and not knowing why.
Yes, the orchestrated cyber-attacks can be considered domestic terrorism.
Why would anyone want to hurt me? I write children’s books.
