I seem to be able to pop right in (both via the 12.2xxxx and via the
rising.homedns.org address) to view your intro and follow-up page
with the appropriate showing of Edvard's "The Scream". Do you think
it will ever be returned to the museum for public viewing?
Are you using any kind of tracing to see where/how far your original
requests go before dropping out? (maybe the satan packages will help
with that).

p.s. If you use any of the ping stuff, do not forget to turn it off,
a novice web-admin may read their web-logs and decide that you are
miss-attempting a ping-of-death denail of service attack and shut
down your site access. Or a network watcher may do so as well.
