[Husker] Where's Huskerpedia

Thu Aug 28 11:02:53 CDT 2008

>From my experience, it's one of those technical problems that should eventually iron itself out by itself; it just takes time for the change to percolate through the internet.  What makes these situations frustrating is that it works for some people, and not for others.  In fact, it might work for you now, and not work for you a few minutes for now.

And if you think it's frustrating to you...imagine being the people debugging the problem!

Another hint; it's usually a good idea to bookmark the Huskerpedia BBS since that sometimes is accessible when the main Huskerpedia site is down.  Just be aware that sometimes the reverse happens, and in that situation, the only way to access their BBS is through the Huskerpedia home page.  (In which case, you've got to change your bookmark...)
