IM website down?

[Haruo]

I was just trying to access information about ABC missionaries John and Tomoko Armagost, whom we are hoping to have at Fremont sometime soon (they're on stateside furlough, based at Japanese Baptist here in town though John is flying all over the country doing whatever furloughed missionaries do, while Tomoko stays in town to teach me [and others] Japanese), but http://profiles.internationalministries.org/, and for that matter http://www.internationalministries.org/, is unresponsive. Anybody know why? I was able to get some of what I needed from the Google cache, but...

How is this for a small world: John Armagost (his wife was not with him) was the guest speaker at a church we visited here in Bozeman this past Sunday.

Not for me. The basic URL (index.html or whatever) starts to open then locks up my Firefox. The "profiles...." page, on the other hand, opens the following un-IM-related page:

profiles.internationalministries.org, supposedly

I am now in IE and will see if I can get to the main page here.

I'm back in Firefox; it locked me up in IE, too. If it was just that I would put it down to the page being too fancy for my rusty-pea-brained old computer, but given the bizarre content of the profile page I am inclined to think the problem is at their end.

Well, I'll give it two more chances...

Well, it's working for me now, too, both pages, so perhaps I'll never know what the problem was caused by. It isn't something on my computer, I'm pretty sure, because last night it was not working from the IT dept. computer at work, either.

Anyhow, the Armagosts are really nice people and I'm hopeful they'll be able to come speak at Fremont. If so, I am slated to do the special music, so I can sing in Japanese; it's been a decade at least since the last time I sang a Japanese song in worship at Fremont.
