    Seriously, thank you Alex. I can't imagine how you manage to do it all.

    I'm pretty sure we have a good idea of the forensics of what happened....about 15 different things all at once but the final straw was the -24 degree temps. All together they made for the perfect storm. We've made adjustments to make sure a crash like this can't happen again....as best we can.

    And speed issues are
    The first time I tried to reply I got no results after 7 min so tried again and got the reply box after 2 min. It took a few minutes for each page of the thread to load.

    Not a complaint, just what results I'm getting. I see you're working like crazy. I wish you healthy energy. Take care of yourself, take breaks to refresh yourself.

    Nope.. wasnt anyone's fault. New server decided to run crap load of updates at midnight. I knew I shouldnt go to sleep.

    Back on it and hopefully keeping it more up than down today.

    Really hoping this is the final push to the finish line.

    Wow, I guess I'm the crazy that's up almost as many hours as Alex. Truck drivers never sleep, they just drink more coffee. I hope that your sites are some how making you a few dollars. Because if you work this hard for the love of the game, your crazy.

    Good Health to you Alex

    Only one site has ads. The rest are 'non-profit' lol.

    Hoping things start to level out. Just have to work on performance issues now while rebuilding the other forums from scratch :-(

    Lots of caffeine on the way.

    Don't you have a Level I or Level II support to call on? Pulled a few all nighters myself when I was in the computer field for a living. It is rough stuff. You can burn your gut out on caffeine and after awhile you just DO IT. Hang in there Alex. Hopefully, you are younger than me . Thank you.

    I feel like I did when I was a child in a very religious home, and I'd wake up and couldn't immediately find anyone. I thought the Rapture had come and I'd been left behind.

    It's a weird, awful feeling. I'm just glad when the sites finally appear, slow or not. :-)

    The sun's over the yardarm here so I say we all raise yet another glass to Alex and Roger, two gentlemen of the finest kind, doing good work under bad conditions.

    I suggest everyone who visits this or any other of their sites should say thank you. It's not like they're getting paid to deal with this crap. Labor of love, and I gotta say it must sometimes be tough to love a motley crew such as can be found here, lol!

    I also suggest we not pester them with too many questions until they have a chance to inhale and exhale at least a couple of times in a row.

    Children are not left behind. People will fail you. But God never will.

    Not looking for an argument, it must have been really difficult, that is my only thought.
