When I used to post on the Clown Free Zone, we experimented with backup sites, including Raging Bull and iHub. SI is much better.

I haven't used Raging Bull but have used iHub since it's a backup for the G&K crowd. If that's all that is available, I can live with less. It's better than nothing.

This really is a fun group. I hope SI continues.

I wholeheartedly agree.

We should all PM FL our email addresses, so if anything does happen, he can contact us and we can regroup.

That is fine with me. You all know I'm pretty strong on privacy so I would be happy to take on this responsibility. Besides, I'll get to see how many lurkers we have! <gg>

Yahoo is a pale substitute for SI, but it would work as an interim....we experimented with backup sites, including Raging Bull and iHub.

Yes, really all we need is someplace to obtain further instructions...but as a first cut go ahead and PM me your email addresses if you wish. I'll try and set up an address that I'm willing to post on this thread too -- that would be good.

SI is much better.

I especially like the PM and Moderating features. They seem unique to me.

Thanks for your comments CB,

Hi CB;

FYI, a simple AppleScript program is currently grep'ng its bits off coordinating the activities of IE5, BBEdit, and FileMaker to backup the thread.
