    I smell a rat

    Something weird is going on today. A whole mess of projects are down today, many unplanned. Even our forum/free-dc was down for a while. I smell a rat. Is there a bunch of DOS attacks going on or something?

    I hadn't noticed the forum being down ? Perhaps it was some main router causing it for some people ?

    I'm able to connect again! Yet in all that down time (for me) only two new posts? I am thinking this is a big network thing.

    Probably the link where the NSA sticks their connector between the major peers.

    I couldn't get to either the stats or the forums yesterday ... obviously working now.
