see picture for what's going on. need to make sure this isn't happening when the general public tries to access the site since that's the only way (i think) to access this months calendar, right?

Hey Charlie (and everyone else who has sent me emails about this),

Thanks for the pic, that actually helps. Several people have mentioned that the site is down over the past week, but whenever I go to check it out (sometimes just a few minutes later) it's running fine.

The issue appears to be server related (see: http://status.x10hosting.com/ for details). In the past, I haven't had any issues with this web host, but over the past month, they've been very problematic (we've had similar issues with the Tampa Makerspace wesite)... granted, it's free hosting, so can't complain all that much.  I don't know if this is going to be an ongoing thing, or if they just ran into a slew of server problems, have been fixing them, and by next week there won't be problems for years. Regardless, I'm going to start looking around for other hosting alternatives. If anyone has suggestions, I'd love to hear them.

Thanks Tristan, that looks like a really viable alternative, I'll check it out!
