    Sorry about the downtime this afternoon, folks. I wanted to make sure I had the database backed-up and everything before I messed with the server to get it back up.

    Looks like we're in good shape!

    I was starting to think that my company had finally had enough of my being here and had put the site on the blocked list. :)

    I might look to do it this weekend if my schedule permits. I just need to find some time when I can be at the helm for 12+ hours to do the upgrade and move all of the data to the new server.

    The only odd part for me was seeing that others were responding to my threads... and the subscription notices were coming in... but I couldn't log on. Didn't realize this would be a *selective* outage! :)

    I don't pay dues, but I sure buy the products!

    well see, there you go, the server is gas/electric hybrid; it doesn't run on electricity alone :p

    Ah yes. See how much better it would be if we could just "plug it in?"

    This could get X-rated in a hurry, yes?

    Danny,

    Thanks for all the work on the server. I'm an IT person as well and I know the amount of time that is required to update and move servers.

    I do have to admit, I missed the site this morning, but I just checked later in the day. Just make sure we keep the site, I would be lost making all the modifications to the Prius and I'm obsessed with the car.
