Bryan, as an SI junkie it was a terrifying experience to live without SI for almost 11 hours...

I think you owe SI members an explanation why we were not able to post for 11 hours.

If you plan to shut down the system like this in the future, I would appreciate if you let us know in ADVANCE.

Of course if it was un-planned melt down, then you should at least let us know what happened.

You just don't know what kind of hell I went through...
I turn off and on my computer 5 times,
and then asked all my SI friends to see if they can post.
(One good thing out of this black out- my anxiety level went up so high, I realized I have a serious SI addiction problem. So I should thank you for helping me out on that matter)

What is your emergency back up plan?
Sure hope not to go through this hell again...

regards,

jon
