John, and Ken.....what happened to the web site? Man, talk about a panick attack!! Good thing i had svrichb, and polkadots' email addresses so i could at least contact a couple pumpkin growers while the site was down...i would've gone crazy! It was nice to find out from them that i wasn't the only one that couldn't access the site.
Gonna get a lot more addresses in my book after this, hope y'all dont mind.

Wheeew...

This site is back up and in full swing. Most importantly, we didn’t lose any data! We were down since Tuesday evening. It turns out that I crashed the server while making an update to it. I’ll spare you all of the details...

One word of advice: If you have a Windows NT Server, update your Emergency Repair disk now... (before the emergency)

At any rate, I apologize for the hiccup in service.

If you sent any emails to Webmaster, Ken, or I since Tuesday, assume we didn’t receive them...

Panic? Believe me WE had our share too! I just don't sleep well when the site is down. Heck, I'm not even very nice to be around when the site is down!

We will be moving to the new server sooner rather than later. We will let everyone know when it is ready. We expect the site to be down for a couple of hours when we switch to the new hardware.
