Good news and bad news folks! The bad news is that our firewall is experiencing some problems that are preventing us from sending or receiving any email. This means no new account applications will be accepted or accounts will be created... until... The good news: we are making a trip over Labor Day weekend (8/29) to repair the firewall and install a redundant firewall to mitigate any future problems.

We are requesting donations to fund this trip - with airfare, lodging, and cost of equipment, the trip budget is around $3000. If you have any spare change - even $5, please consider making a donation. Donations can be made by credit card or by mailing cash, check, or money order to:
PO Box 583
Alexandria, VA 22313-0583

We thank you in advance for your support!

ASSTR will be performing upgrades to its equipment the weekend of March 23-25, 2007. During this time we will be adding two additional servers to our arsenal as well as making some performance tweaks to some of our existing equipment. While we will make every effort to prevent any service interruptions, we anticipate the need to take the search engine offline for some amount of time during the weekend. Thank you to our many donors for making this upgrade possible.

Happy Holidays from everyone at ASSTR! As year 2006 winds to a close, we want to remind you that there is change going on behind the scenes at ASSTR. We're working on a facelift for our web site that will make stories easier to find and enable more communication between our visitors. Stay tuned for more!

In other news, we've been hurting recently for donations; what we've received has been less than our expenses. If you have anything to spare after buying presents for loved ones, please consider making a donation.
