@Krum Yes in fact Nick (of Macheesmo) and I have been friends since we lived together in a group house in Washington DC for three years. Among other things, I was one of his first taste-testers and I was there the night he met the woman who is now his wife. I am an incredibly lucky person. I think there's a chance that you're right about the traffic issue and my blog crashing. The worst part was that I was traveling and it wasn't easy for me to fix.
