Server weirdness
The ISP that serves the Metroblogging mothership has had a boo boo:
Starting this morning at approximately 6:20am EDT we experienced a
power failure which has been traced back to a blown feeder cable
providing power to Power Distribution Unit #6 within our Virginia
Datacenter. We have 6 PDUs in our datacenter and your server is
powered by PDU #6.
Consequently, access to the mySQL database is very intermittent which might prevent you from posting comments and prevent us from posting new entries.
