My comment was certainly not a "trounce" on any "ill arranged priorities".
I am the first drop what I am doing for family, and support those who do.
I am more concerned about the perception we leave when the site is down
regardless of what the issue is. Not sure how an IP can "change", if that was the case,
but maybe we should look at why and working to ensure it does not happen again.

Again, I never intended to appear as if I was beating on someone, it is the perception
we leave when it is down.
