Coding Horror has a message that I'm pretty sure I've put up more than once. Sorry to hear about that, hope you get things back soon.
If you can help Jeff out check out his @codinghorror or hit up his recovery thread at superuser.com.
As a note to everyone, I'm trying to establish the @ufies twitter account as an alternative notification method for people if the server goes down or is having issues that I can't communicate through it. Please follow!
