2. That may just be the sound of
the 58 million angry Democrats that will vote Kerry in 3 days.

3. I got the same error message I got from gwb.com site
I live overseas and we are not allowed onto the georgewbush.com site. An error message comes up. This morning I was having trouble getting into the discussion threads and got the same message - WITH georgewbush.com listed as the site I was trying to access. Hmmmm..

5. It's been slow for this time of night but Elad works into the wee hours
sometimes. It could be something benign.

8. A few went to the Panic Room
Some can't get in at all, others like me can get in once in a while. I'm ready for it to be s-l-o-w Tuesday, but will still be biting my nails when I can't get my fix.

9. Problems for me also
Error messages. Posts that don't post. Forums I can't get into.

For whatever reason, I typically experience those at 2-3 AM Pacific time more than any other period of the day.

11. It's been very slow for me for days. And normally it's fast.
And I'm on dial-up. Feel sorry for me. lol.

I turned off the signatures and avatar's, which turns off ALL pictures in any post. That helps a lot in speeding things up. I know that by Tuesday Admin will turn those things off internally, but if you do it now, it might help.

12. The Internet will groan under the strain of traffic this coming week.
Sites will be POUNDED with traffic. This week will probably be the Internet's greatest moment of trial.

14. Had some trouble last night...
...sometime past midnight. Couldn't get into this particular forum, which is the one I read and post in the most, though the others were fine. I kept trying, and a few minutes later all was well again....
