**!!** EXPECTED DOWNTIME THIS AFTERNOON (THURSDAY) **!!**

[Elad]

Please be aware we are expecting to have some downtime this afternoon as we do work on our database server in an effort to solve our continuing database problems.

We do not know exactly when or how long this downtime will last.

Thanks for your patience, and sorry for the inconvenience...

15. I'm sitting under a tornado warning as I type

so it may be my DSL that goes down first. Not to mention the power lines. Speaking of inconvenience. . . Right now, it's just raining a little, gusting every now and then, but it may whomp up on us soon.

Good luck solving those database problems. We'll wait for you. ;-)
