Why are there so many database faults on this site?

Since the e-mail address shown there is devnull@macnn.com (or null@macnn.com, can't remember exactly right now), I would guess no.

Well folks, don't be so harsh. Running a vb of this side isn't exactly an inexpensive venture. I have one not quite half the size on average and monthly costs are significant.

I blame gorickey. He was always harping on about the upgrade, and now we have it and it sux. I am glad he went into retirement, because if he shows his face around here.....

Brian says (9:16 AM): I was looking at houses in Ottawa... I actually have a temptation in me to move
Jeff ******* says (9:19 AM): Eww, Ottawa is gross. It's infested with politicians, and presently, 1 Harper as well.

It's a problem with the database, not the forum software.
