So when my host crashed yesterday as the result of a blackout in California followed by one of their backup generators catching on fire - I apparently lost all my non-downloaded/unread mail.

If you sent me a note and I haven’t responded - please resend.

Wheee! I love it when life goes exactly according to plan.

Power outage at the datacenter
By Ralph on System Outages

There has apparently been another power outage at the datacenter. One of the generators caught fire and they were taken offline. We’re waiting for more information and we’ll post here as soon as we hear anything.

I have to say that as excuses go, that’s a pretty good one.
