Electricity, cable, internet - these are a few of the modern things we take for granted in this world as it has become. And these are things we miss the most when they go away and that we fail too often to remember how complex is their operation and maintenance and the armies of dedicated linemen, technicians, engineers and others who make them work, day after day, and who bring them back to us when they occasionally falter.
Now add to the list - The Company of Men.
And we have Radio Bob! A man who does all of this to keep this site going as a kind of sideline to his day job, and whom I also think does so as a labor of love.
And so, now add Radio Bob to that list of heroes who make our world make sense and who restore to us those modern marvels we daily depend on and take for granted until their absence makes us notice.
Thank you, Radio Bob, for your service and dedication to this community. You are a gift to all of us!

All of the moderators have my phone number. I explained what was happening to everyone that pinged me. I did not have my offline list as this happened while I was traveling for my day job. (Yes a perfect storm of crap to happen at once!)

I recall similar issues when Daddy was here and the site would be down for a few days and then, miraculously it would reappear.  I am glad the magicians who work to keep this going know the right tricks to do so.  
Thanks for your hard work.  I will be sending a small donation of thanks and urge others to do so as well.  

I wonder what happened too.

I’m curious to know if the moderators were as much in the dark as the rest of us while RadioRob was busy salvaging the situation with the servers. 

'Interesting' is doing a lot of work there!

I wish I could say that for myself!  The last few days have been interesting to say the least. 

Our brief hiatus gave me pause to consider what I had gained from this site. A lot of insights, a place to talk about an eclectic range of subjects, a considerable number of people who I regarded as acquaintances whom I valued, in the moment if not more widely. Some of those are people who I would be happy to continue to have some sort of continuing relationship with outside the forums, but while the forums continued there was no urgency to build separate connections.
I'm not saying that I'll be contacting people left and right, or even for the moment that I'll contact anyone, but as was the case when the forum seemed on the edge of disappearing when Daddy died, I was forced to consider what there was here that was of such value that I'd want to try to preserve at least vestiges of it. It's something some of you may have already thought over these past few days, and those of you who have not, may want to do so now.
I hope that anything I do turns out to be an unnecessary precaution, but I'd rather make the choice now when I can than later regret not doing it while I had the chance.

What you guys do is so meaningful to so many men.  Thanks for all you do!  

Let us know what you need to continue into the future.
I hope we can help you and/or meet your need.
You're awesome!

Much appreciated. $$ sent. 

The site feels like it's running a lot faster 🙌

Thanks are wonderful.  But money pays the bills.  One time donation in the donation section at the top of the page or a more ongoing contribution if you so desire will keep this site going through perilous times.
