I don't know why everyone is having trouble with SI, albeit it is somewhat intermittent. (sp) I think that whatever the Dryer's were doing in KS they ought to re-create in Seattle. I think GNET somehow has limited the pipeline, although I don't claim to know squat about pipelines.....It does seem the timing of the move was about the time the trouble started. Or was it SI Admin (Bob)'s appearance that caused the slowing....I don't know.

Tom, RE: SI speed. FWIW: I have seen many people post on SI about it being slow, and have always thought it odd since I almost always have immediate access. There are times when it is a little slower, but I attribute it to the overall internet being overwhelmed since other sites I go to are also slow at the same time. I have found on occasion that I get no response from SI or an error message but that is rare and doesn't last long (1/2 tops). I have found that access is fastest in the mornings and slowest in the afternoons, for which I conclude is due to the fact that the west coast is still in bed during my mornings. Anyway for whatever the reason is, it sure is frustrating when you can't get to where you want to go.
