I don't mean this as a flame, but I don't understand the revenue coming into FR that they couldn't have the site more stable. Elections are the FR Superbowl. We need to be ready!

It could be a dim Denial of Service attack. I'm sure jimrob and John are checking on that too.

I just had this very conversation with my boss, so don't take it as critical, but:

There are some technical problems soluble by throwing money at them. Those are the good ones. There are others where you simply have to roll up your sleeves and get dirty. You can't estimate cost or when they'll be cured because you don't know what they are yet. When you figure that one out they'll either be solved or they'll turn into the "good ones" - see above.

JimRob and JohnRob, I'm pullin' for ya...

I certainly don't feel scorched. No problem. I'm not privy to any financial details, and don't want to be. I make what few donations I can, and that's all I know. I wish I could do more, as I feel certain from the amount of money raised, noone is getting comfortable, much less rich. It seems to me it would take ALOT to run a place like this. Perhaps what we could ask about doing, is maybe a seperate donation for site upgrades. I've been told it is expensive, time consuming, but worthwhile. (when asking about my own home computers). It's too late to help right now, but would sure be nice to have in place by 2004. Just an idea, see what you think.
