"Well, seems it is time to upgrade the board software"
Since it is broken ... alas, the company that made this board's software (DCSripts) is no longer in business

So, if anyone knows of any good cheap (i.e. free/open source) Board software they would like to nominate, I will look into alternatives ...

1. "OK, looks like we are back in business ..."
... for now ...

Whew, I was beginning to doubt my mad skills ... then found the place it was permanently expiring cookies ... as of 12-31-2010.

Guess they thought the Mayan calendar was too optimistic

Anyhow, looks like login (and staying logged in upon return) is working again ... but, I will be looking for new forum software. If anyone has any preferences, now would be a great time to speak up. I will do my usual procrastination, and "get right on this" ... in a month or so

2. "Looking into FUDForum"
I am really a bit disappointed in how much I have not procrastinated so far ...

Looking at what's out there, this seems to be a front-runner and supports text files, which would makeit easier to convert the existing boards stuff.

Problem is, this board software is either so old or off the beaten path, no one has written a conversion script ... yet

4. "Condemnation"
The West Coast Chapter of the National Procrastination Association will make an announcement condemning the action of one its West Coast most prominent Charter Members for his swift and timely response of an emergency outage of an online forum.

The formal announcement will be held, perhaps, sometime later this month, as it was suggested by the High Council.
