Sorry For the Downtime - Server was offline on Sun

I'm so sorry about the recent downtime - the server was offline all of Sunday morning since Midnight Saturday night.
Our database server is not doing so well, it appears to be suffering from some hardware failure. As of right now - the database server is 'back' online, but it's days are numbered.
Meanwhile, my extremely cool ISP has been helping me out beyond the call of duty... he even delayed his trip to Disneyland today to help - my hero!
Tomorrow, we'll be working on moving the database to a new/modern server- wish me luck!
If you are reading this... it means things are going well. 
Take care,
Gideon

Well, your can't-get-to-the-database message was far spiffier than the Drupal one that happens when my website's database connection is hosed.

for the forums? not sure if i setup the custom error page/code - you may have seen the default for ColdFusion.
quite a stressful day yesterday with the server going down - I was so glad to see it online this morning. So far so good!
Meanwhile, the new database server is being setup, and we should transition over later today.
BTW everyone - no data has been lost

I was going to call you Sunday morning about it, thinking you might not know, but I didn't want to wake you at 6 am. Glad it's back.
