Server Issues

To bring in the New Year, our server's hard drive has decided it doesn't like the look of 2009, and so is busily tearing itself to pieces. Luckily, TDG's tech-guru Dave saw this coming and quickly switched us to a new (faster and meaner) server, restoring from back-ups a day old. What this has meant though is that any comments posted in the past day have been lost, and some of you may also have had problems connecting to the site for several hours today. Apologies for the inconvenience, but we've been pretty lucky to have escaped greater downtime and problems (lucky = having someone super-capable running the server). I'll be reposting the two stories posted and subsequently vapourised yesterday in a short while, and things should be back to normal from this point (as normal as they get around here at least!).

That's a shame, I posted a world exclusive with undeniable evidence that Zahi Hawass has found an extraterrestrial corpse inside a secret chamber within the Pyramid of Khufu -- but I didn't save anything, it was all in the post. Oh well, I'm sure I'll find it again soon enough. ;-)

Get well soon, TDG.

Very funny!! It's nice to know people with a sense of humour. Hope you find the article soon - I can't wait to read it!
