Just a quick note.....

John D. · 10-16-2005, 06:57 PM

For the next 3 weeks, I'll be off-line more than on-line with this site, servers and circuits. The reason is - after 10+ years of being together with Jen, we are getting married in the US Virgin Islands this coming Thursday (October 10). We leave tomorrow AM at 4:00 AM....

In the past 2 weeks, I''ve really struggled to optimize both this server and the circuits - as I've noted your comments about the server getting "slow" at times. For that, it *should* be on-line during "my outage" (err - "wedding/honeymoon"

).

As well - for you newbies just signing on where I need to "approve" your subscription before you post.... Please be patient. I have no idea when, if, how, who, what there is for Internet access - but I'll try to get you set as quickly as possible....

My thanks to all of you - and I'll try to post back over the next few weeks...
