Anyone else having problems getting on the Rick website? Late last night and today, I can't even get to the main page. Anyone heard anything?

Yup, me. Discovered the same situation late last evening. I wonder what gives?

I couldn't get on either.
Maybe they are doing some maintenance or up grade to their server.
About a year ago, the phone company was working outside RIC and they accidently wiped out the line for their server. It took the phone company a few days to fix it.

Hardware upgrade- should be done by noon today. But I'm glad to see y'all are watching.

Gee, John, and here I was thinking that your carrier XO had let you down, and I was thus going to offer you huge bandwidth on one of my companies' OC-12 fiber backboned colocation facilities on the East Coast for a mirror of your site, in case this ever happens again. (Still will if you think you may need it!)

They're putting a Bigsby on the webserver...

And a new nut with the slightly wider string spacing...

It's back up and the servers now sport checked binding.
Elys, we haven't used XO in years precisely because they did let us down too many times. We have dual providers with different technologies but unfortunately awhile ago we found out that they go through the same vault; when the construction next door damaged that we lost both connections simultaneously. So, feel free to tell me more via e-mail . . .

No new nuts though...Just the same old ones (at least in the Paint Dept.)
