It connects after the l-o-n-g-e-s-t time, but then one gets the rough draft of the site, not the usual product.

No problems with any other web-sites, so it's not franksolich's computer.

Okay, sorry for the panic.

Elad must've fixed it now.

Working okay here. You are on a special list at the DUmp.

The eminence grise of Skins's island had the same problem, before I took out the boat and tried rowing over there myself, but was beaten back by rough waters.

Trouble with DU this morning.

I had to switch to http://upload.democraticunderground.com to get to the site. The www version was resetting each time I tried. Anyone else having issues, and are the admins aware?

4. Just checked the regular entry point, and it works again.

Glitch of some kind, I guess.

website said DU was down several times. Finally got back in about 15 minutes ago.

If you could liquify Skimmer's DUmp, and pump it through state-of-the-art purification equipment at the big guy's sewer plant, it would emerge as a liquid version of this place.

All the dark hatred, vulgarity, and lies would be transformed into truth, mirth, and joyful light.

Now I can't get on the DUmp, neither the old DUmp, nor the pay-to-play DU3.

I'm beginning to suspect hijinks from some smurky little smart ass.

Earlier today there were several x-rated pictures on the DUmp front page.  I think someone is messing with them.

In answer to the obvious--or perhaps not obvious--question, not I.

Although I'm sure Sherlock Judy, the grasswire primitive, has already blamed me.

Didn't this used to happen shortly before each fundraiser?

Perhaps the begging letter will go out shortly to continue milking them.

It's a thing of beauty to see a lib waste their money on a lost cause.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.
