Forum Outage?

There were 182 users online in the 99L invest thread following the recon data from the hurricane hunters when it crashed. I wonder if we caused the down time?

There were 374 online yesterday (that I saw...could have been more and it was missed), and the board was zipping along, so I really don't think so.

Quoting Kludge:

"While on the soap box...noticing that a significant number of ...ahem... generation Y folks have recently joined the forums, one could easily get frustrated by the 'text-messaging' -like flavor of a lot of the entries lately. Nevertheless...realizing that a major part of the value of forums such as this is to allow Pro Mets to educate those with the passion and interest...I for one can endure the silliness as long as the classroom is not disrupted too much.

Thanks again for all your efforts in keeping this great board online...!"




Decomdoug adds:
"Amen brother, same here!"

You should remind me to step away from the keyboard after I've had a beer....

Maybe this board will inspire one of those "Generation Y" people to study metereology and ends up developing a hurricane model that actually works!!..Imagine if you will the year 2045 and the head of NHC says he started out as a lurker on S2K..
Why not???
