As you may have noticed, we we're offline this morning. This was caused by the "Thanks" plug-in going rogue and using up way too many server resources. This triggered an automatic suspension by our hosting provider as they thought it was a malicious attack. The "Thanks" plug-in has been disabled, hopefully temporarily so I can determine if that was indeed the cause, and take steps to prevent it from happening in the future.

I apologize for the disruption and for any confusion that may have caused.

Maybe because our pupils will close in response to visible light -- closing out both visible and UV light, but will remain open when exposed to strong UV alone. I remember hearing that warning about non-UV-blocking sunglasses, anyhow.

CPF? Are you a firefighter?

Don't teach him about CPF. Next thing you know, BC will be over there buying flashlights instead of scouting all of those good deal for us here!

Or maybe he needs another hobby :D
