That's right       chuckcar. Now if the jackass at dsl reports had of been clued in and read       this newsgroup then dsl reports would have been down what maybe *one* hour       at most? See what happens when you don't take chuckcar's advice.              JF Mezei wrote:              > OK, I understand that this web site isn't a full time job for the owner.       > And the fact that it has been down for another day without even some       > text page explainingthe downtime is worrysome.       >       > Can a forum really survive this ?       >       > How long will it take before people trust the site again ?              --       The Grandmaster of the CyberFROG              Come get your ticket to CyberFROG city              Nay, Art thou decideth playeth ye simpleton games. *Some* of us know proper       manners              Very few.
