#5 Dittos to that Sheba. I had been wondering if the Lefties had done a "Parler" on the site.

#7  Recovering. Should be back at it soon.

Once again, badanov got there first, and much more efficiently. (Teamwork!) But he has a genuine journalism degree and once was in paid employment for it before moving on to more emphatically practical employment, whereas I spent my childhood intermittently editing one of my favourite scientists’ efforts at English and, eventually, writing poetry. :-)

#11 Good Morning Vietnam!

Seriously - it's good to have Rantburg back. I gotta admit my work productivity for the past three weeks shot through the roof without Ranburg, and now... not so much!

#12 It is relieving to have Fred back at the helm. And thanks to all mods so supported the effort.

#13 Fred recovering and Rantburg back? Prayers answered, both times.

#14 Set as today’s headline, because with 162 views today already, after nearly 400 in less than twelve hours for yesterday’s post you lot are definitely concerned and in need of being quickly pointed to this information.

Well done in verbalizing the local zeitgeist, NN2N1!

#15 A much better Sunday morning now that the Burg is back! Be well Fred and kudos to the people who stepped up to revive our spirits at a time it is greatly needed.

#17 Sorry Frank... ;)

Gotta admit I was right worried about Fred for several days.

#18 Yep! I missed yesterdays post as I usually check in the wee hours prior to its reboot at around 1400 Hrs yesterday
...

Either... Extremely happy he is on the mends.

BTW:
Surely there will be uncovered by insurance Medical bills. Is there a donation fund link?

#19 I was just getting ready to remove the favorite from my browser and...surprise, surprise, surprise! So glad to see that Rantburg is still with us. Still the best WOT sight on the web.
Best wishes to Fred for a complete and quick recovery.

#22 So very happy to hear Fred is recovering, and thrilled that the Burg is back. It is such an amazing resource, one we will all need to keep track of the colossal screw ups the Biden team are sure to inflict upon America and the world.

#23 Our prayers are with Mr Pruitt and his family. Very impressive that he decides to keep up the work in his condition. Also, the Moderators, TW and all. Respect.

#24  Bless you Gloria and Fred! Being on the mend is good and I have missed this page! Please be well Fred and let the group know if there is any way to help. I have read the entire page everyday for so long I can’t remember. It’s the rock. Gotta keep you healthy dude! Thank you.

#27 What a time for Rantburg to go down! But I'm so glad to hear Fred is recovering. I guess this covid stuff is real. When my provider let's me know that I can, I'll get an appointment for vaccination.

#29 Been jonesin for the Burg like a crackhead since she went down. You just don't realize how much you depend on something til it is gone. 20 years is a long time folks. Cuttin the Burg off cold turkey was harsh, harsh for some of us. Great to see Fred on the mend and all of the regulars back on the comment thread. Thanks Fred for 20 years of the Burg. Now I'll go back to lurking.

#30 ...Praise God Fred's okay, and so very glad the Burg is back - we need 'em both now more than ever.

#32 Good to hear Fred is on the mend!

It may have been a blessing in disguise because, given the events that transpired, I might have posted something that could (mistakenly) have been interpreted in such a way as to land me in the gulag. Multiple times.

#34 I find I’m really running short of places to visit on the web. Having Rantburg vanish was a shock!

I’m glad to see it’s back. I’m sending my best wishes to Fred and hope he’s back to 100% soon!

#37 Good to hear Fred's doing better. With Rantburg offline and Second City Cop going dark, I was starting to get worried.
