hey, were the boards down earlier, again? Or was that just my computer being relatively stupid? I'll accept either answer as legit.
If you've done things right, people won't be sure if you've done anything at all.

Yes, that will be happening from time to time. No biggie, just try again in 1/2 hour if it does.

Nonsense. If anything the government would go after the IRT forum for its ... er... subversive nature... or something.
