Nothing we are doing is a breach of contract with my ISP. The type of service I have allows for this sort of server to be run on it. And calling PBW a "major server" is a bit of a stretch.

Emailing the ISP isn't going to help, because the problem is the phone line. Emailing the phone company isn't going to help. It won't get me in trouble, but they aren't going to care that you guys can't reach your favorite website either.

We looked into Shrapnel hosting the site Last year when we ended up moving it to Ohio. It wasn't a good fit with their business plan. I don't mind, I prefer it the way it is rather then having Shrapnel run it.

Just got to get the stinking phone line fixed.
