Looks like the site's back up, and none the worse for wear. Good job on the migration, folks!

A couple of things didn't go entirely according to plan (the DNS changeover was designed to take an hour, instead of a day, but there was some confusion as to which name server the domain was actually looking at months ago that ended up monkey-wrenching that plan a bit yesterday), but overall it's been very smooth. Still a few small config tweaks to make, but for the most part they shouldn't affect the user experience.Good Grodd, I just used the phrase "affect the user experience" unironically. --G. -><- Benjamin D.

As an aside, "Good Vibrations" by the Beach Boys (referenced in the thread title, as if anyone didn't know that) is the only mainstream pop song I can think of offhand that features a theremin.--G. -><- Benjamin D.

And I saw a citation somewhere that Zeppelin used one in something somewhere, but I can't think of what song that could have been. Theremin's really more of a movie soundtrack kind of instrument. They're hilariously fun, especially if you* accidentally make one. * By which I mean, "someone else" ** By screwing up a transceiver build

Also according to Wikipedia, it's not actually a theremin on "Good Vibrations," but an electronic instrument called a Tannerin. And now you know. Appropo of nothing, here's a video of a cat's encounter with a theremin: http://youtu.be/bXn4_JkVFVo This bit of nonsequitur has been brought to you by the letters ℵ and Œ, and the number e.
