I was replying to a post from the BROWSERS Forum to John and Rick

Is everything OK now?

You were sleeping? At your post???

I was up at the time and took the blame for you. Wink

Seriously though, the forums were completely down for about an hour and extremely spotty thereafter. I e-mailed Lee, who was surprising not only up but checking his e-mail. (His reply came after midnight his time, though I had already shutdown.) By the time I got back on it was completely fixed...Lee must have put a rush on it. Just goes to show how Cnet's 'John did an oops' response team has come together. Grin

Sleeping at my post?

John, I was trying to post back to you and Pudgyone. I switched between Firefox and Safari thinking it may be a browser problem.
I gave up and slept. At least this time it was in bed and not whacking my head on the floor after falling asleep at the computer.

Has anyone ever had that happen to them? I have lumps on my head to proove it. My wife wakes up from the sound of me hitting the floor. She yells at me: "Are you OK!"
Yikes!! I hate when that happens. If I wore a seat belt I would take the chair with me to the floor also.

Wonderful! I actually thought it could be a browser problem so I went to another site and that one worked.
Mark, stuff happens. "Away with the daisys"? Funny!

Thanks,
