It has been a very, very busy day for us with the traffic to the website frequently exceeding the ability of our server to handle the volume. We are working on a major resolution to this problem that has been occurring too often the past few months. It should be in place by next week.

Our Fall fundraising campaign has begun. If at all possible, please send in a donation. We rely entirely on our readers for the finances to continue this crucial truth mission.
