      Seems there was a delay in re-upping the domain name. But it is fixed.

          The domain name had expired and the email the webmaster had on file was no longer current. So we got a little reminder this morning. The domain name bill is now paid for 10 more years.

            Paid

            How are we doing for money? I know that when we go hacked, several people donated to the cause. Is it time to feed the kitty in order to keep the site in business? I'm sure that all of the people that have benefitted from this site would be glad to help support it.

              yah, it was early this morning when I tried to log on and for a few fleeting moments I thought that maybe I still having a dream... A horrible, horrible nightmare. There were sudden feelings of panic and anxiety flooding me. What if it's really gone? What will I do? Where else will my obsession be so well understood and recipricated? Who will I turn to when I have some crazy mechanical or electrical phenomenon...?
              Oh, thank god... It's still here!

                Yeah,
                It was scary! After I discovered that it was down, I woke Gary(66) up this morning around 9:00 am, and he was able to contact JP and get his attention! Thankfully the Domain Hosting company has experienced this kind of thing before, and reserved it for a while even after the expiration date, so after he updated it, the server and all the files, etc. were still there!!

                I'm sure that XS11.com would appreciate any donations that folks would like to send, just click on the links on the left side, you'll find a donation link in the Goodies section IIRC.

                Part of my plan for the "How To" DVDrom is to be able to sell them for just a modest price, and forward the profit funds into XS11.com!
