Todd, I tried to replicate the problem I was having yesterday and it seems to be gone.
One of the applications I was testing with Google Gears was Google Reader and when I would "Go offline" in Safari everything would work fine, however in my Fluid app whenever I would click on anything it would wait (I guess trying to connect to the internet) and then tell me "Load Failed. Reason: no Internet connection". Like I said though, I just tried it and it worked fine now, however I am on a different machine right now so I'll try it again at home just to be sure.
