Just a quickie post to sincerely apologize to anyone who was trying to access the site yesterday and instead of the IWR front page got a big, fat THIS BLOG HAS RUN OUT BANDWIDTH banner [or something equally nasty].
Normally my web host starts bombarding me with emails when I’m up to 80 percent of my bandwidth limit, at which time I swiftly respond by adding some more. This time there was not a single email so I continued on my merry way completely oblivious to the imminent catastrophe brewing back at the Weather Report.
Obviously when I discovered what had happened I sent the web host an angry ROAR by email [hope they had their volume turned way up when they opened it] — at which time it was discovered that they had indeed sent those emails but alas! they had not been delivered to my account. I won’t bore you with the details [ok ok - it's because I use Google Apps for email and when they transferred me to another server a couple of weeks ago that info somehow got lost so they sent the emails directly to the mailbox on the server instead of through Apps ... told you it was boring] but in any case, it’s all fixed now.
This is my first day back at work and I have about 1000 things that need my attention, but I’ll post again very soon about my amazing weekend at the SKUP conference in Norway and all the incredible people I met there.
ICELAND WAS STILL HERE WITH ITS STARK BEAUTY
So different from beautiful Norge with its endless evergreen forests and gentle rolling hills [at least where I was]. Mt. Esja looked astonishingly beautiful this morning, formidable in its white cloak with charcoal details, half obscured by a distant blizzard. Forbidding yet comforting, endlessly solid, as one bank after another teeters and falls. As some of you may have seen on my Twitter feed [in the sidebar], another three banks [savings banks this time] collapsed while I was away. Right now it’s 3°C [37F], sunrise was at 7.14 am and sunset due for 7.55 pm.
