        ( Amazon Is Down )

Amazon was down yesterday. When I first read it I thought: Bill hit the nail
on the head.

I wonder if it's the heat again. MySpace and YouTube were recent victims of
downtime. Even Wikipedia was down for several hours the other day. Even
here, there was an outage due to heat last month. The servers on campus went
titsup 3 times in just one day. No problems since...

Best wishes,

Roy
