Derrick, thanks for the advice. I ran Profiler yesterday, and strangely enough it acted as though there were no requests coming in at all. No errors,...
Adriann: thank you, I will definitely look into that. Thomas: You are right, and I apologize. I hope you and others can understand that it is...
This is like one of those twilight zone movies. Suddenly, I think I'm speaking English but in reality I'm apparently speaking in Chinese or...
