Graham I can’t get anything now. I’ve tried opening article and general threads that I had opened previously and that I hadn’t opened previously. I tried opening threads from the front page and from the discussion index pages.

But earlier, when I opened the new article – ‘Kyoto – a lot of hot air’, off went a bunch of little tweeters followed a by a very agro lion!

I'll let you know immediately the next time it happens.

Oh. I thought the menagerie and birds etc. were part of the problems everyone was experiencing? Yep. I've been gettin 'em for the past few days.

Yesterday there was a window of a couple of hours when I was able to access site but when I tried on and off for the rest of the day and evening it was as impossible as it has been for the past few days. Actually I find the birdsong etc. rather amusing.

And here's me thinking the tweeters were an enhanced OLO add-on! Can't recall the agro lion though.
Will have to keep a closer eye/ear on things out of the ordinary.

Heres a thought.
What if its China?

If they have plans for the USA as stated in the article, why not Australia, and why not any site that produces any anti-China comment?

Christians know China has an outward march in mind (the Kings Of The East) so why not long-term preparations for a sudden 'blanket of silence' or disruption to the net prior to their eventual outward march.
Too far fetched?

Wow Gibo, that's pretty scary stuff.

Certainly worth contemplating.

Graham, I just got a whole gaggle of deranged little birds singing away at me when I posted on the 'Kyoto - a lot of hot air' thread.

Then when I returned from the 'comments added' page to the article thread, more birds had a drunken prattle and the lion roared! Actually it's not a lion. It sounds more like a leopard.
