Haven't been able to find the ole site for 3 days now, though it seemed to be there a bit late yesterday. Is it me, or are they having an issue?

Same here.   Oddly enough, the exact reverse happened a few months ago.  This site wouldn't open with the same message.  It healed after almost a week.

Going back years ago both crashed & had to be rebuilt.  Alot of great info was lost.

It's back out again. 
Rusty must be doing the upgrades he spoke of this morning.  I get nervous when these sites go missing.  A couple of great resources (tool websites) have left the interweb over the years.  I kick myself for not saving some of the info that I found & utilized there. 

Even though the volume of daily posts here isn't what it used to be, there is a tremendous amount of knowledge in the past postings on this site as well as Garage Gazette.  Some sort of parallel data saving or backup always available would be a great asset.  I realize that we don't own the sites or the info, I guess being able to always rely on it being available would be a comfort.

Not wanting to go too far off topic, but this is one of the reasons that I have printed manuals for every vehicle & most equipment I have ever owned.  I can find info even during Frontier DSL outages.  My Sons research everything on youtube or via websites.  I do too, but still get started with the hard copies.

Old man rant over!
