Geeze, don't you read the news :-)?

There was a small electrical fire on December 29 in the Proudential Building,
in a room housing equipment belonging to Channel 68.  The article about it in
the Globe said they'd be down for at least a few days.  I don't have a TV with
me here at work, so I can't check to see if they're back up :-), but I suspect
that this outage is what you noticed.
