Nothing was wrong with the server at all. In fact, almost every time the site is down, it hasn't anything to do with the server: It's Zoner's DSL breaking. For some reason, this can be pretty much counted on to happen anytime he leaves the house.

No, really, the correlation is uncanny. For several years now we've had a link-dead outage every time he's gone to CES, or I Can't Believe It's Not Anime Expo, or to visit his parents in Florida, or what have you. If he's not sleeping under his roof, the DSL will go down and require a power cycle on the router to bring it back up. A few weeks ago when he got sent to Omaha for work? Boom.

We do have someone else in town with access to go frob things when they go down, but he doesn't drive, so in those cases it's still not happening until after his wife gets home from work. :)
