Big mistake.

I've done end user support before. Explaining to users what their problem is is pointless. They just aren't knowledgeable enough to comprehend anything.

lmao - the guy claims he has 22 years experience with computer science...
What a moron.

:) I hope someone sends the tuttle times a link to those pages

Oh he has 22 years experience...

Some people need to learn humility. It will get you far in life...

Wow, that really WAS a good read. I was hoping the FBI got involved somehow. 22 years of working with computers and the guy is still an idiot. I wonder if I work with his brother... :).

it says right on the page what we need to do as members of the general public ;)
If you are a member of the general public:

The fact that you are seeing this page indicates that the website you just visited is either experiencing problems, or is undergoing routine maintenance.

If you would like to let the administrators of this website know that you've seen this page instead of the page you expected, you should send them e-mail. In general, mail sent to the name "webmaster" and directed to the website's domain should reach the appropriate person.

For example, if you experienced problems while visiting www.example.com, you should send e-mail to "webmaster@example.com".
send them an email complaining about the website not being available :D

Wow, you really do not know what you are talking about, do you?

First off we are talking about APACHE webserver, the most commonly used webserver on all of the internet. It runs on, unix, linux and windows.

Google runs huge linux clusters running apache. Dunno about you but I have found their site to be pretty reliable.

It's free, they don't pay for anything and they are berating this guy because they are inept, why should he continue to go out of his way to be cordial to a moron who is attacking him?

This just shows that if you are persistent you can get your problems fixed. This is how Bush is Fixing Iraq.
