Yes it is... Here's what I just sent to the USOFClubnet --
The website is unavailable at the moment due to a billing problem that Robin S. is addressing.
If you have any urgent need for information or links from the website, let me know; I have backup copies of the pages.

Still not up as of Sunday afternoon.
I suppose they want to see that check in hand before they restore anything (and I hope they haven't deleted the site completely).

Is this part of the "credit crunch?" Are we sure that our server is still in business? Is our check on its way to South America? Hopefully Kenny's A/P server is more stable.
I've heard that we're entering a period of "diminished expectations" ....but I never expected USOF would be the first to feel it...guess I was wrong:
...At the beginning of every recession, there are people who see the downturn as an occasion for moral revival: Americans will learn to live without material extravagances. They'll simplify their lives. They'll rediscover what really matters: home, friends and family. But recessions are about more than material deprivation. They're also about fear and diminished expectations. The cultural consequences of recessions are rarely uplifting....
