Sandy,
We can only do as much as much as possible to protect the
efforts of our contributors. I am sorry that you disapprove
of my actions but I did what I felt was best at the moment
and I have apologized for any inconvenience. I said upfront
that it was temporary. I don't believe 2 days to
reconstruct a site is an unpardonable crime. I can not
speak for anyone else as to what they may want to do or wish
to do. Every web site in the country was effected and no,
unless they come up with anther scheme, I doubt I will find
a need to take my site down again for revision but who knows
what the future will bring.
Nola

Clearly, you're missing the point, Nola.
And what if they _break_ that vow?
And what if the sites that are already cached begin
showing up again?
What about the "next time" TheGenerationsNetwork, Inc - or
any of the
several subscription entities - does something you, or
*any* cc,
objects to?
Will we have county sites going offline without warning
again? And
for how long next time?
This is a slippery slope.
