#1 Thanks for the explanation, there's no need to apologize. But apparently I picked the wrong week to give up tequila shots.

#2 yes, thanks, I thought it was my computer mucking up.
I wish there was something that could be done so that you didn't have to futz so much fixing things. Was it coming from any specific IP?

#6 Amen to all of the above. I did get in the back door, but that was a bit of a problem, too, since I had hidden the link - along with all my other files! It took a couple of trys before I remembered the proper :81 format.

D*mn computer things always do exactly what you tell 'em to, just not always what you'd intended!

#7 Fred if it make you feel any better it looks like LGFs got the DOS yesterday too. The site was down for several hours.

Any possibility in finding out where it came from?

Last night I had dinner with several liberal friends, told them about your site. Darn if they didn't get excited. MSM is vacant on the WOT news and as American Vets they were very interested. Yours is a service to this nation. Keep up the good fight.

#8 Thanks Fred. I was beginning to wonder if it was THIS again!

#9 It was probably those rapidly rising sea levels again! You gotta watch those things.

#10 I thought corporate IT was finally on to you guys and a firewall was between me and the news so I am relieved to learn it was "just" a DOS.

#12 Fred, I'm not surprised you're attacked by those that want the truth suppressed. I'm only surprised the Iranian, Saudi, Syrian, Pakistani, Egyptian, and Lebanese government, friends, and family, don't do more. You spread truth, friend, and that's very threatening to closed minds. Keep up the good work!

PS: I've lost your address. Send it to me again, and I'll put a check in the mail.
