FR does this whenever it seems something can be gained by it.
Not to worry.  It WILL be back up!

Just saying - it probably has the most traffic of the majority of
sites on the web, too though.

I honestly rarely have problems with the site going down completely -
some MINOR sluggishness here and there, but overall I'd say it's
pretty reliable... (Of course, I have DSL, so if you're on dial-up or
something you may definitely notice more subtle problems than I.)
Considering the amount of traffic FR's servers handle I think it does
VERY well really - I've been on other forum sites over the years that
regularly go down with WAY less traffic - especially on weekends.

PS - this is "LibertyRocks" :-)

Larry -- if more gave more during the quarterly fundraiser it would
help.  As sites go FR has a shoestring budget.  It's a great value.

Seems to be. Everybody keep in mind that resetting some servers is a
little more than your PC. This finale on the Olympics is great.

I was asked by AC to cover some events at the DNC in Denver this week.
My first report deals with the fact that the City is somewhat on edge
due to a terrorism scare, the "Black Bloc" anarchists, abortion wars
and massive congestion that will accompany the convention:
