Yes thanks for the warning. Nothing worse than those messages that say the site cannot be found. But it was just here.

When I started writing my current story for the Fiction Archive, I started to get excited about sharing it. I knew the only place I could share it was here at the EA. Right around when I wanted to get feedback, the whole damn site went down. I can't tell you what that did to me emotionally. (that was when we lost our provider.)

Just last night I finished the damn novel. 120,000 words long, and the story is now completely inseparable from the EA. The EA is the ONLY place it could ever be read, or garner any feedback.

If I didn't know what you just told us, Tal, and I came here to find the site down, I might have a nervous breakdown thinking fate was out to kill my story. Thank you for the warning. Consider me prepared.

My cable company who I buy internet service from does this same sort of thing. They go offline at midnight or 1am without warning and then do "service" which usually turns into a Mongolian cluster F$$K

I hope these "moves" go well and without a hitch.

I sometimes wonder whether reports about the future sometimes tell stories different than what the future becomes as it presents itself because the future is, and only is, that which has not yet actually happened?

I have not been able to think of a sequence of words that would result in this thread becoming closed unless these words will suffice.

Thanks for the heads up, and thanks to Krister for clarifying what time zone the outage times are for. :) I'm usually checking the boards about that time and now I'll not wonder where you went.

The problem is the future

becomes a near instantaneous present

and is lost in the past

I wonder 🙄

Do we get the future any less inaccurately then we get the past or present?

Perception being so jaded and all.

Thanks for the thoughts JaneK.
