You may have noticed that my blog was blank for several days. It appears it may have been hacked, with something weaseling its way into my blog database and scrambling up lots of underlaying code.
With the help of my vigilant webmaster, who looks after the hosting of my blog, we are beginning to reconstruct the blog. So far, most of it is back in place, but some elements remain difficult to resolve.
I bring this to your attention to underscore the value of having a webmaster in the wings. I would never have been able to get this blog back online by myself. In fact, I was considering total abandonment of the blog and all of the information I’ve collected and organized here. But Jim Faelker galloped in to the rescue, spending several hours examing and saving the database, reloading the program, upgrading to a more recent version of WordPress and moving everything over to a new server. It took him several hours. Thanks, Jim!
Jim’s services don’t come cheap — but in circumstances such as these, he certainly earns his money.
