OT: Network seems very flakey today...

The Internet (or segments of it) seem very flakey today. Is anyone else noticing this or am I imagining things again?

Michael,

When did you get back?

Forgive my manners, Mr. Erskine,

Welcome back, and yes, some segments of the internet HAVE been slow today.

:) Been here all along. Just a bit quieter. Thanks.

Michael:

Have been online alot at work. Mostly at .gov sites; regulatory stuff. They have all been fast. Alta Vista is normal. I haven't seen any problems on the "greater" net.

Best wishes,,,,

I don't know if Phil has a massive sense of humor, of if this is just random, but Erskine wrote:

and at the bottom of the page is Bill Gates. This sort of thing has happened often ;<)!!!!!!!
