Apparently my posting suspension was only for an hour or so. Strange experience. And very instructive.

I hope it was only due to server problems. When I came back on about an hour ago, my cookie was not recognized(it said it was stale) and I could not log on for about 10 minutes.

I hope it was only due to server problems.

No, it was a real suspension. When I tried to post I got a screen that told me my posting priveleges had been revoked. And I was given a reason, but it made no sense. ("Defending the Taliban"). I suppose moderators need a justification for what they do.

It was probably the server. I got someone else's freepmail. (I didn't read, the messages were not interesting.)
