Don't mean to sound negative, but this is further reason why I prefer to
leave my County Page on my local ISP. The only more negative thought I
could imagine is the 49er's beating the PACK on Sunday. Forget that
thought, never said it !!
Last weekend, I drove up from southern Indiana (almost Kentucky) to Fond du
Lac, WI for a New Year's Eve party and a Sunday Packer Party (and possible
hope of a spare ticket). After buying an offical yellow foam cheesehead,
several 12-packs of Packer beer, authentic braunschweiger, excellent summer
sausage and thuringer, and a half a truck full of various cheeses, I slid
on ice back down thru Milwaukee and Chicago and ran into warm 57 degree
weather on the way back to Vincennes, IN.
(God, I miss it up der !!)
Well anyway, I don't normally say much over this List, but the mail
"beeped" while I was purusing the official Green Bay Packer Home Page and
getting ready for Sunday !!!

www.rootsweb.com (and hence
usgenweb.org,

worldgenweb.org, ... ) onto a bigger Internet

>Express, a locksmith, and our next-door neighbor's mother-in-law, it

>But here's what you'll see from outside RootsWeb. Over the course

>30 minutes each as we upgrade various subsystems.

>And the Web server will be down 1 time for about 3 hours as we shift

>Ordinarily, we do this kind of work at two in the morning, but

>Anyway, I apologize for a little rockiness during the next week. By
>next Friday we'll be running a much bigger and faster Web server
>that has at least two T1 pipes all to itself. Cheers, B.
