The cover up . . . .

Ock·ham's razor also Oc·cam's razor (ŏk'əmz)
n.
A rule in science and philosophy stating that entities should not be multiplied needlessly. This rule is interpreted to mean that the simplest of two or more competing theories is preferable and that an explanation for unknown phenomena should first be attempted in terms of what is already known. Also called law of parsimony. ~American Heritage Dictionary

Sherlock Holmes' Law - After eliminating the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, is the truth. ~Sign of the Four (Chapter 6) by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

First we were told . . . .

Within the past couple weeks or so, you've been seeing lights in some public areas (mostly on Lower Level, 3rd Floor, 4th Floor, & exterior) [of the King Library] going off & then back on sporadically & intermittently. I was informed that the server for the lighting control system had just been upgraded & the technician were still working out some glitches. The problem should be resolved soon.

Then we were told . . . .

Earlier today, this restroom [5th Floor Public Men's Restroom] got hit with vandalism. All the faucets were bent sideways. The plumber responded to this problem, removed all the faucets, & closed down the restroom awaiting new parts.

Then again . . . .

Recently, we've been experiencing different problems with the sensor faucets in the Staff restrooms on the Lower Level & 4th Floor. Typical problems are non-working sensors, no hot water, high pressure water dispensing, & the most recent - water running for a long period after users step away from the faucets. The technician have been working on these problems but different issues keep arising. We are still working on different solutions right now, and will keep you posted.

The truth . . . .

There is really only one simple explanation for all of this phenomena . . . .

we have a poltergeist.
