A Technical update for those computer people who might care

Homecoming tonight. I am back in Chippewa Falls. I got a little time to look at the new server tonight. I had been looking at some software called Blue Dragon. It is free software that runs on a computer and can send out dynamic web pages, like the forum is. I had looked at it some before I left. I had downloaded the newest version and tried to install it on the new server. It would not install though. As soon as I typed in my password it would crash. I downloaded an older version of the same program tonight and it installed right away.

Ummmm, it doesn't run yet. That is sort of a down side and the way this stuff works. I will have some time to diddle with it some tomorrow night. In the meantime, I have someone to call tommorrow and see if I can use some space on one of his servers. If so, I should be able to move the forum over his server and bring it back up tomorrow night!

I am sorry to you all for all this down time. I do know how you all enjoy it. I enjoy it too.
