Don't think Ed is ready to hand this site over, but that is just my opinion.

if ever the webmaster/host is unable to maintain this site please let me know. I'd be happy to take it over. I love the site and dont' want it to go away. Had me worried for a bit..

I didn't mean it that way either.

I thought it was my computer this morning acting up. It happens though.
I just hope he's got a backup of the site and database. I have had forums in the past and found that you can't rely on the host provider for backups/recoveries in a FAST manner. Typically their recovery times are measured in DAYS rather than Hours. I had one outage in 5 years due to a hack and was back up in a few hours with a patched version (only because the vendor had issued the update earlier in the week and I was waiting til the weekened to patch the site).

Pomoxis, I think Ed has everything under control, you know he has a real job, not just babying an internet site. Have some respect for the man who brings this all to us.

I think most of us have real jobs. Some of us just happen to work in technology.
It's like anything else. If you know what to do, take the right precautions, prepare in advance for an event, then recovery is faster and less painful than it otherwise would be.
I understand this is just a little hobby fishing site but it took alot more work to put it together than you might think.
*shrug*
I'm just trying to help with my experience since I ask you folks for help on fishing.

Seems like you're kinda lost without this site. :D 200 posts in one month. Nothing else to do, huh?
mobile phone with unlimited internet
Plus I type over 70wpm and read very quickly.
