Power?

WHY does UT have to have power plants right in the middle of campus. And WHY does my office have to be right next to one of them? Right now I can't even hear myself think because of something going on at the power plant. And it's not like I can be like 'hey! keep it quiet over there, I'm trying to work on my computer...that uses your power...oh...' :( I can't even tell you how much this sucks.
