Perhaps you might have noticed that this site was down for a few days at the very beginning of this month. There was a slight financial misunderstanding with the company that we use to host this site. A mix-up between what I ordered and what was actually the case. The misunderstanding has been ironed out and the site is now fully operational, hopefully for a long period of time.
