So you're suggesting the data is becoming mangled as it travels over the internet? Seems most of the bitching has revolved around a lot of worthless data that changes as you travel from server to server...not outages. You never know for sure if what you see is real without verifing with another source. Sounds like you're the one with no idea, or very confused over the application of database systems over the internet. Apparently you are another user satisifed with the fantastic interface...I am too, but data reliability is much more important to me. I can even deal with an outage here and there, but I simply must know whether or not the data I stare at is the real McCoy or something seemingly pulled out of the air. sf
