Sorry about the website downtime this week, folks. Our hosting provider suffered a server crash. They restored us with a backup from last week which means we lost any incoming email from roughly July 28 to August 3. If you emailed us in that time frame and haven't heard back, please resend. Thank you.

The server is down for maintenance again August 8-9 so we may miss some emails again.
