What Happened to the SETI Site?

I haven't been able to connect with SETI for a couple days now.

I know they were having bandwidth problems. Has anyone heard what the current problem is?

Remain calm, earthling.

All your deep-space listening are belong to us. You will be assimilated. ;^)

Shortly after posting this on FR, SETI is working, FR strikes again!

The following was just posted on the SETI site.

A firewall failure at SSL on Saturday caused us to lose connectivity until the problem was fixed this morning.

Why are we spending any money on this?? All we may do (if there is any sentient life out there) is telling them where WE are. Maybe they would like the way we taste (just like the 3 headed chicken on Alpha Centauri) and kill us with their Phasers and barbecue us.

Let's keep radio silence, huh?

Am working on a screen saver that will help locate the SETI web-site. You'll shortly be able to download it.

Well, there's a comet making an appearance in the vicinity of Mars for a little while.

Maybe they ate the Jello in preparation for their return flight?
