Folks, we're very sorry to say that The Pits is temporarily down due to server problems, and we cannot say when we'll be back online. In the meantime, you can use http://www.thenorwaypits.com, however, be aware, that was only intended as a backup server (thank goodness we had it) and never to be the main site. In the meantime, we're going to revise The Pits and when we get it back online, it should be better than ever. We're sorry for the 'stagnation' that seems to have been apparent over the last few months, but I've recently quit my 14 year career with the USAF, went job hunting, moved house, and innumerable other things, and since The Pits is a 'hobby' as opposed to a commercial site, it has suffered somewhat. If anyone has any good ideas about server hosting, please let me know ([email hidden]). I can give some quick figures for The Pits, 2 Gig size, and approx. 1.6 Gig/day bandwidth...so it needs a fairly substancial site to support it. Cheers!

We lost our server. Jan is in England on vacation. Hopefully when he's back we'll have the site back up.

Should I place more files for download at my SCGT page? This way there would be less stress on the Norway site? Maybe I could give you FTP access and you could start dumping stuff over? SLG "Dave Henrie" <[email hidden]> wrote:
