Just checking to see if we are back and what might have happened?

Yes, we are back and a server was replaced that used an off-shore supported source.

Thank you to all involved. 
I sometimes imagine the Wizard of Oz is hiding behind the curtain pressing buttons and throwing levers to keep this going.

Good to see the site back up and running.  There are lots of us that missed it.  

Hats off to whomever did the recovery.

Apologies for the extended outage. The server decided to crap itself. As it's located in NY and I am not, we were at the mercy of the supplier's "onsite support." Which turns out to be "not onsite." Always an adventure, but eventually a new system was spun up and a wonderful time was had restoring backups, fixing service configuration (or services missing completely) issues. There are a few minor, niggling issues to run down. Hopefully, nothing that impacts the community. Be well!

Thanks so much to whomever pulled off the rescue!
