Around Midnite on Feb 26th, we are moving to a better data center in New Orleans with better capacity.
Hopefully the site will not be down for long.

Just a warning so you don't panic,
Rick

Thanks for the heads up Rick, but could you please remind us again on Feb. 25th?

I've got the attention span of a gnat...

I'm already freaking out. I read this forum before I turn on the news in the morning.

"we are moving to a better data center in New Orleans"

Rick I hope the physical location is on the Third floor or above...LOL

Isn't it like setting up a computer in the bottom of a dry swimming pool, betting it's never going to rain again? LOL

Don't know if your remember, but when Katrina hit our present data center was on the 7th floor in New Orleans. We moved the data to a center in Houston as a backup, but the main one kept working through it all.
They had backup power that would last for 2 weeks, and before the two weeks was up, they were granted more fuel to keep it operating. Apparently the powers to be thought data and communications was pretty important to allow the fuel to be used in that way.
The center where we are moving bought out the one we have been using and is even more secure. I feel pretty confident we will be OK.
Biggest problem is we have to physically move a bunch of boxes. Luckily, most of the stuff runs virtually, which helps.
Cross your fingers,
Rick

Rick for some reason the text went to huge text. Look like I am at 640 x 480 resolution when I am at 1920 x 1400? Just flashed and changed.

This seems to be a problem with Forefox as no problem with I.E. 8.0

hit cntrl & 0 (zero) a the same time.

or go to "View", zoom, reset.

or hold down control while you scroll your mouse wheel.

You zoomed in on the webpage somehow in Firefox.
