All,

My apologies for the board's awful performance and occasional errors over the last few days. I think we've outgrown Dreamhost at this point. I'm looking into alternatives.

(And please note that there will be a bit of short-notice downtime when I go to use one of those alternatives sometime in the next few days!)

such is life....

it seems real perky right now

It may have been an Actual Problem rather than just the combination of accumulated posts and average-slow DreamHost. I'm trying my own PHP binary instead of theirs, and I've added a couple of database indexes in obvious sore spots.

*knocks on wood*

Hi Rich! After all these years, can't you find a new avatar??

...said the avatarless.

I like his avatar. It's cool, an institution, and reassuring. Like mine.
