An error occurred while loading http://www.dollmore.net:
Unknown host http://www.dollmore.net

I wonder if this is a problem with our internet provider, or possibly our home router...

After I got off line it occurred to me that "Unknown Host" is probably a DNS error. In which case changing browsers won't help. So then the question is are you getting to a DNS server at all or is the DNS not updating itself? I don't know how tech savy you are and I can only help you with Windows. Do you know how to check your TCP/IP settings?

If it's a DNS error, it probably lies with your ISP.

[Llwynog]

True. But I would still want to have my DNS info handy when I called the ISP.

Maybe that's just the geek in me. I'm sure the ISP help desk can talk you through getting any system setting they need.

Good news, I got an e-book reader for work, bad news 1 my home network doesn't understand there's supposed to be a new device, bad news 2 the pdf reader doesn't read the pictures in the free Google books I have, jpeg2000 or some other BS, so I get to open and resave each and every one. Each and every at least they're free book. The Oz series can wait now.

I did an admitted OT post in the North GA meet-up thread (we are meeting tomorrow), letting the other members know of a crisis situation with a local Humane Society. I nicely asked that the mods allow the post to stay because lives are at stake. Less than 10 minutes later the post was gone.

What kind of person deletes a post like that?!

Obviously, DoA mods. It's not about OT dolliehs so it cannot possibly be important.

Seriously that lot is so shallow they make mud puddles look deep.

[Kirahfaye]

Yeah, well I went back and added another post about the meet-up in which I "slid" a little notice that I'd discuss the situation with everyone at the library . . . and IT got deleted.

Sigh . . . my gut reaction is to claim the mod is just an animal hater who doesn't care that furry lives are at stake, but I fear it's worse. She's someone with mod blinders on who can't conceive of any world outside of DoA.

An anal retentive DoA mod.

I'll tell you what. Put a post in that I am going to donate a custom made 60 cm outfit to be raffled for the Humane Society at that meet (and maybe the next couple). I still have the pirate wench that didn't sell on ebay I can send you. THERE IS NO WAY she can claim that is not on topic.

Which Humane Society?? I used to me VERY involved with Cherokee County, but college took my life. I'd like to help if I can.
