Hi-ho,
Yeah, yeah, I know. The discussion boards crashed yet again. This time, at least, Lan was in town when it happened (so she didn't try to blame me for making it worse.)
While I pretended to understand all the geeky details about why it crashed when Lan was explaining it to me, all I really caught was that we lost all the messages. If anyone can explain why a webserver is "no one" and "no one doesn't have permissions", then you are a better geek than me.
Lan promises me, though, that the new discussion software she's installing will take a lickin' and keep on tickin', so don't be shy in coming back and posting your thoughts again. Unless you're that crazy freak that keeps posting the bad love poems to me ...
hurdy gur,
Derek "semi-geek" Barnes
