Linda,
Thanks to you and yours for all your hard work and efforts in getting IMWAN back up on the web. Dealing with Comcast is never fun. It's not even moderately amusing so thanks and congratulations for all your hard work.
David

You're very welcome, David, but we can all thank Danny for getting the site back online. (And send him some cough drops because his throat is sore from yelling at Comcast's tech "help".)

Jimbo, will you be doing a special "Saturday List" thread this week because we weren't accessible this morning?

It's great to have this place back. Thanks, Linda, thanks Dave and thanks to everyone on the yahoo backup message list that kept us abreast of what happened during this saga.

We knew that Linda was tirelessly working to restore things here - the only chaos we should have is self-generated!

Let the pigeons loose!

Thanks for getting me back in, Linda. I appreciate it! If I'm going to be banned, I want to earn it!

Linda & Danny,
I'd give the both of you a bear hug a polar bear would be proud of if I could. Thank you so much for getting everything back in order.

For the sake of the historical record, this thread is referring to the fact that this site, the Iron Man With A Nose (I.M.W.A.N.) site, was down from Wed 09-05-07 until Sat 09-08-07 due to problems with the server.

Close, Gary... but if this is for historical record, it should be accurate...

A) The server was fine and dandy. It was happily sitting idly by, waiting for requests to come in. The problem was with our Internet Service Provider and the way it manages it's network. Yes, IMWAN was affected, *but*, it was not due to problems with the server.

and B) The site was unaccessible for almost exactly 48 hours, from approximately 5pm Wednesday evening (EST) 9/5 until approximately 5pm Friday evening 9/7.

Yet another reason to gnash one's teeth when uttering the name Comcast.

Thanks Dan and Linda. I missed this place when it was down.

just a reminder.

when/if IMWAN goes down, always check the YahooGroups messageboard.

linda kept me informed as to what was happening, and i, in turn, relayed that to the YahooGroup.
