 ML> we had a small t-storm come through at 0600 eastern time monday
 ML> morning... the last lightening strike out of the measly seven thunder
 ML> rollers took out the firewall, the bbs and some other equipment... blew
 ML> the telco's NID/demarc box apart... weird thing is that the telco
 ML> doesn't have any equipment or lines to our west where this storm came
 ML> from and the strikes never got any closer then ~5 miles... the seven
 ML> thunder rollers took place over 10 minutes... it was tuesday afternoon
 ML> before the telco got a tech out to check the lines and replace their
 ML> damaged equipment... we were able to bring the firewall back online a
 ML> few hours after that but we kept the domain disabled because the
 ML> bbs/mail/web server was still down...

Ouch!  Glad you were back up by the time I got back in town on
wednesday...!   :)   That sounds rather scary...

 ML> i think she played last night (wed)... the maint did pass her in our
 ML> game... 
 DD> AFAIK. If it did when I am able to get back on I will do a courtesy
 DD> pass.
 ML> i just did the same a little bit ago when i checked and saw that she
 ML> had been on... 

And I thank you for that...  :)  For whatever reason, maybe just the
timing of the plays, I didn't get passed in the game I was playing with
him... 

 ML> i'm hooked to the same feed that doc is... home cooking gets your
 ML> traffic every day without fail... how is fred accessing the message
 ML> areas? if via news reader, then his pointers may be off and he needs to
 ML> unsubscribe from the area and resubscribe to reset them... unlike a
 ML> bbs, the user's news reader holds the pointers to the message they have
 ML> read so that puts the fix on the user's end...
 DD> Fortunately Home-Cooking appears everywhere else that I go. And if the
 DD> recipes that I forward to Cooking appear on Doc's (which they do) I
 DD> know they got out of Janis' board or Sean's.
 ML> sounds like fred is using a news reader and he needs to reset his
 ML> pointers as described above...

No, Fred uses Telnet, same as I do... and I think is using an offline
reader as well...  I'm seeing the same thing, and it Is Indeed a
Puzzlement... Dave's bulk ten make it to Cooking, but not to Home
Cooking... even though they are sent the same time, from the same
place... And they make it to the other places that I go just fine...  

 ML> ... Nobody asks a Chile Head to do the cooking at a family reunion.

Unless it's a family of Chile Heads...  ;)
