Bad timing - you'll miss out on some of the medallion hunt posting unless someone finds it early.

I have had the no host memory a couple of times, but Mark and Tim are so quick to respond, it's really a non-issue.

I got the no-host error for a day or two, but haven't in several days.

Anyone still getting it?

I wonder if deleting cookies, clearing cache, etc. would reset things and get it back on track.

Iceman, sorry to hear you are not going to renew, but I understand it is your choice.

Sorry to see you go.

The no-host memory is a server-related glitch. Anything you do on YOUR computer - clearing cache, etc... won't really change the problem. Basically the server is maxed out for memory and every so often it 'blocks' a new post because it wasn't "ready" for it yet. It really doesn't affect one person more than another - more like 'bad timing' is the problem. I do worry about larger volumes of posts during the hunt.

Hitting the "back" button on the browser and re-"POST MY MESSAGE" has always worked for me the 2nd time around.

The memory issue won't go away without doing some major restructuring on the server. Mark (SYSOP) and the chiefs said they want people to e-mail them ASAP if the glitch is becoming chronic or the whole site starts to slow down. They can re-start the server and purge the memory relatively quickly - trying to reprogram code to soften the memory problem would end up taking forever.

Urgent request:

Does anyone have the name and contact info for a professional dog catcher in the Twin Cities/Afton/Hudson area?

Hawkeye's owner is wanting to step up the efforts in a major way.

Eastbound I-494 closed in east metro

Associated Press

Article Last Updated: 12/17/2008 08:27:36 AM CST

Motorists are asked to avoid eastbound Interstate 494 in the east metro.

The Minnesota Department of Transportation says a tanker truck is disabled. The truck is empty, but one of its shoulder tanks is leaking fuel.

A hazardous materials crew and the Minnesota State Patrol are on the scene.

All eastbound lanes of I-494 are closed at Minnesota 5 in Mendota Heights.

Motorists are asked to avoid the area through the morning rush hour.

The forecast for Friday night into Saturday night says 8"-10" of snow possible. If it is correct then we should have plenty of snow for the hunt. Maybe they will finally hide it somewhere other than the woods.

I thought that last year though- plenty of snow to dig in in Mounds- no need to put it in the woods but they still did.

I think it will be HF, Cherokee or back to BC.

You've got some out of sight spatial intelligence. Often you come up with an idea that others don't see. I imagine you do well in IQ tests.
