My apologies. I think AWS has rebooted everyone of my servers now, and we should be back up and running.
Thanks,

Database outage
Been a while, I guess I was due for a database failure? I’m sorry about the downtime Sunday.
Mother Earth News Fair 2017
I’ll be set up again this year at the Somerset Mother Earth News Fair. Stop by and visit if you’re in the area.
What’s Hot in the Scamming World
Scammers are quick to take advantage of current events. The US-CERT (United States Computer Emergency Readiness Team) has recently released two advisories regarding emerging scam tactics.

US Consumers and Online Saftey
This article suggests that there is more of a deficit than I might have expected in awareness of online safety issues.
Countdown Timer
For the most part, I’ve tried to stay quiet this election season. While I have great hopes for President Elect Trump, the election process this year seemed more geared to providing entertainment than selecting the next leader of the most powerful nation on earth.
That said, when someone sent me this, I couldn’t resist sharing.
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas one and all. May God bless each of us.
Happy Thanksgiving
There’s a lot to be thankful for this year. We demonstrated once again that we can change political parties without violence. We’re seeing a climb out of some bad economic years.
Find some time to reflect on what you’re thankful for this year. For me, one of those things is the opportunity to provide a website to a lot of great people.

Veteran’s Day
Those of you who have served our country, Thank You!
Database Restored
The database restoration went much faster than anticipated. Down time was approximately 30 minutes, and the site appears to be working normally.
Again my apologies for the inconvenience. Thank you for your patience.
