Major Server Crash

I guess you know that this site was down yesterday. Of all my sites on the server, this one was the worst hit. We have recovered all the entries on the site. We are now working on comments and mapping the entries to the appropriate categories.

This has been a huge inconvenience and we hope to get things rolling again shortly.

Thank you for your support.

Nah, I try to write here at least 3 times per weekday no matter how busy I am.

The crash was a disaster. 3 backup hard drives all failed and became corrupted. No fun.

The site was down for 14 hours. And since MovableType runs off perl, it was a mess. We transfered over as much as we could to the mysql database and it is now running off that with perl. Getting closer...
