Not yet.

Tim

We have ordered a new server. It will ship out on Monday and hopefully be here on Wednesday. Matt will have to load everything onto it and then head to Atlanta to install it to replace the failing server there. For now we are operating entirely from our local servers here at Matt's house.

For now we've lost all data since last July but Matt is pretty sure that once he gets the hard drives from the Atlanta server in hand here he can restore pretty much all that data. At worst tho we've lost six months worth of posts but everything else is intact and we think those are still there and he will just need to work his magic to restore them.

I thought Matt had paid for two day shipping on the new server but he didn't. He said that was gonna cost $90 extra. Currently we're expecting server by Monday maybe sooner. It could be late next week before Matt gets the current server in hand to try to recover the posts.

I don't see it as a big deal. Most of us on here can't remember what we posted back 2 months anyway.  ;D

I sometimes have difficulty remembering what I just read.  Actually every time I have one of these senior moments, I go make a pot of coffee.  My doctor says I have too much caffeine in my system.  I would take in less caffeine if I could remember where it comes from.
