The forum was down over the weekend. Beartooth was paying for 'X' amount of bandwidth and as you probably noticed, the volume of posts and visits went way up this month, compared to what it was during the summer. That caught everybody napping, and of course, it was the weekend. Everything's under control now, we think. One never knows about the net.

Was wondering...the "new" unit tosted the modem and I converted to this old unit that hasn't been run in a year so was considering that the fault was in the machine and not the site. Actully, the old unit is going pretty well all things considered As a crawl along on a land-line at 28.8).

As Jack has so correctly stated, we simply were caught off guard with the bandwidth useage the forum has been eating this month! Lots of new members, new posts and increased activity after the typical summer "slack time" and we were simply not prepared for the bandwidth usage we're experiencing. Should be under control indefinitely now. Sorry for the inconvenience, and the downtime.
Thanks for hanging in there with us!
God Bless,

By Golly, Marshall -
I was like an addict going into withdrawl symptoms not able to log on! Figured you and the son were out moose hunting still and we'd have to wait for your return before fixing. Sure glad it's up and running again!
BTW, how did the hunt go? Any moosies to report?

Marshall;
Do you need to purchase more bandwidth? If so, pass the hat again, I'm in for $20. Just let me know.
