Yesterday, when this site was down, I realized just how important this site is to me. Been lurking here for years and this morning I registered and donated. This site is the best, and I don't want to be without it!

I have suggested to Jim before that he take the site down to drive home the point for some who need it. He just laughed it off;

Of course there are some nutters who think that is what he did do. Whatever, I believe a light might have clicked on for some.

To be honest, this is the only site I look to for news and info. I check out other conservative sites, but let's face it, they are nothing compared to FR. I quit watching Fox News on a regular basis, because.....well you know why. But I turned it on yesterday and somehow it has mysteriously turned into the Weather Channel. Go figure.

You're right - a light clicked 'on' for me yesterday. I'm glad I had the Yahoo site bookmarked, but it is definitely not the same. I realized that I rely on this site a lot more than I thought - I donated this morning too.

Perhaps you have no idea how many times Jim and John have sweated bullets when the site has gone down, or how many emergengy trips John has had to make to San Jose to wake the servers up. I don't suspect that he found a great deal of humor embedded in the idea ;o) (and you have a cruel sense of humor!)
