If, for some reason, you reference this site by IP (198.64.189.142), it will be changing tonight due to political wrangling with our major backbone provider (Verio).
We SHOULD be free from any interruptions. But if we do have any, rest assured that they will be worked out ASAP.

Are you at liberty to provide the new IP address for us to get us by in the meantime before all the DNS servers get updated? In most cases it shouldn't be more than 24 hours before the changes make their way to most DNS servers. If not, no biggie. Also, what time will this be taking place?

;[ When the site went down and I asked Brian about what was wrong he said it was the IP switch, and he fixed it a few minutes later. What other conclusion was to be drawn?
