True.  We've been up longer than any other CoCo community site, as 
far as I know.  I'm not sure I heard this many complaints back when 
the original biggie CoCo site went down without notice.  Everybody 
contributed megs of personal messages and content to that site, and 
then one day.. nothing.  The admin was unreachable and probably still is.

And what about Jim Davis ?  He just completely vanished.  Years ago I 
tried to buy his whole software line he was peddling poorly and his 
response was this and only this:  "Not interested."  end of 
e-mail.  Now where is all that SunDog stuff?  Where is Jim?  Not that 
I have time for it Now, but back then I did.

For me it's been a challenge keeping the site up since, what... 
2000?, starting out as a simple tower of banners called the "CoCoNut 
Directory" then progressing per visitor request.  If coco3.com makes 
it 10 years online without being rendered "another dead CoCo site", 
I'll be one happy fella, and everyone else should be as well.  :)
