Hello everyone! After three weeks or so spinning my wheels in the offline brig, my landline and DSL Internet have finally been restored. Turns out there were two separate line problems affecting my connectivity, both in the neighbourhood and both of the kind that only an onsite line technician could fix. This explains why I was left hanging for so long. Suffice it to say that I have taken steps to make sure that this "outage" will not happen again, and will take further steps. By August, I should have true connectivity redundancy - so if this ever happens again to one network, I'll just switch over to the other one and continue as if nothing had happened.

It'll be as costly as car insurance and I'll treat it as such...but it's only a matter of time before I squeeze some use out of my new connection.

With that announcement out of the way, I have a second one to make. I have a ton of catching up to do, so I will not be responding further in this thread until I've caught up. Then I'll probably reintroduce myself and sketch out what I learned during my down-time and what I can do to promote NFD. I know the price performance has been disappointing so far, but NFD's price has been pretty solid around 4 satoshis. Yes, there is an upside to that...

'Til tomorrow, then, at a time when my tomorrow-morning hangover will have long disappeared.
