Sorry about that lifers..

[mglenn]

Sorry to cause you all withdrawls like that. Musta had a power bump here cause the server had rebooted but it musta come up faster than the cable modem cause it didn't have an ip.

Anyway all better now.

Ack! I had no idea what to do with myself at work today!

[GaryEA]

Not a problem Mike!

I can resume breathing now....

Thanks for getting everything up and running again.

[fnordboy]

i...was...scared...didn't know..what to do...help me...

You know this was probably my most productive day at work today

[GaryEA]

Who knew that fnordboy was productive... at work no less... ?



Actually, I kept trying to get back into the site repeatedly today. Like a mental patient.

It was like a bizarre simpsons skit;

"Is it back yet?"
"No."
"Is it back yet?"
"No."
"Is it back yet?"
"No."
"Is it back yet?"
"BART!"

Ditto on that for me, especially after I found out about the latest and greatest AU email.

[Natasha (candygirl)]

Hee! Exactly my sentiments - when I read that AU email, the first thing I wanted to do was come to the forum to see what everyone else had to say about it, but alas the forum was still down

I made up for the MSCL downtime by catching up on Angel so I was about as productive as usual

[GaryEA]

Oh buck up, little camper. It was only for fun!

same here. It was like a freak panic attack (I'm not making fun, I've had my fair share of them). I needed to get on the site pronto.

BTW: http://news.mscl.com runs on a different server, so when mscl.com is unreachable, you can go to http://news.mscl.com to check whether we're working on it.

Hey all,

Thursday I was like, did the site get hit by a virus? I am glad that the site is running again.

Thanks,

Sorry folks no Micro$oft products here.

One part Apache, Two parts PHP and one part MySQL.
Mix well and bake at 266 Mhz for 24/7 or until the power fails!

BTW: http://news.mscl.com runs on a different server

Not only that but unless I'm mistaken (which does not or does happen depending on who you talk to) its on a different continent. So if some freak Terrorist plot would take out Butler PA ( which could happen with businesses like Ibis Tek in town) we would still have redundant services to satisfy you MSCL addiction.
