Lately I've noticed this board slows to a crawl or locks up completely. I know it's not my ISP, everything else works fine and others I've contacted report the same problem. My guess is the server can't handle the increased traffic, but it could be a DOS attack. Anything's possible at this stage of the game.

In the event of total failure, as unlikely as that may be, there is a group for Aurelian on Google. Go to http://groups.google.com and punch in Aurelian where it says "search groups." You want the first group that comes up, and don't worry - it's virtually dead, so we won't be invading anyone's turf. Bookmark it for future access.

Be advised, you need a Google membership (free) to post, but not to read. Also be aware, this is a threaded group, so discussion occurs within the threads. Start a new topic if you have one, otherwise reply within the thread. Don't worry, you'll get the hang of it.

I doubt we'll actually need this, but you should always have a plan B.

BTW, I post as "polar bear" on Google, just so's ya knows.
