channel 9?? CBC from Windsor?

I just wasn't sure what you were talking about Jordan.

Plus it is funny Channel 7 WXYZ is going to do a story about people who go to Windsor and party and how it can be 'dangerous' just thought it was funny

auto-locking doors? Â*Are those time-lock things? Â*or groovy electronic things where you put the little circle magnet key into the door, and it whirrs and opens? http://campcaen.engin.umich.edu/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/rock.gif

and if they're time-lock doors...what happens if you have to go to the bathroom!? Â*I don't know if Mike or Chris would like it when I wake them up to open the door for me...cripes. http://campcaen.engin.umich.edu/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif

</span>Quote[/b] ]Me: Â*"I gotta go take a ####!! Â*When I get back, I'll pound like mad on the door 5 times, wait three seconds, pound twice, wait 5 seconds, and then pound twice, so you'll know it's me, since we don't want any scary robbers coming to take our blackalicious computers away!!"
Chris: Â**zzZZzz*
Me: Â*"eh, Mike??"
Mike: Â**zzZZZZZZzz*
Me: Â*"Damnit..."<span =''>
Please don't let it be time-locks http://campcaen.engin.umich.edu/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif http://campcaen.engin.umich.edu/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

Or they're just locks that are locked all of the time. The Bursley locks are unlocked until you lock them, which they're looking to replace.

I love how you guys automatically assume its some 1337 electronic lock gizmo http://campcaen.engin.umich.edu/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

If you guys think the locks in Bursley are bad, you should see the ones in Couzens Hall where I live... Not only do they not lock automatically; but the lock on my room last year, and the one on my room this year actually fall apart about half the time when you're trying to close the door and you have to put them back together before it will close, let alone lock! http://campcaen.engin.umich.edu/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/mad.gif
