Has anyone else out there in ESL Land found it suddenly more difficulter to read/ access the US military yellow dust monitoring website?

http://www.korea.amedd.army.mil/webapp/yellowSand/Default.asp

Has the site address changed, or have they just decided to make it inaccessible to unauthorised-type persons?

'maintenance'..? Is that what it tells you?

It tells me I don't have 'authorization' - is that the same thing?

And, any idea how come it's down during spring, just when we need it most?

That's them taking the site offline and putting up a nothing that you can't access.

And it's down because it's a weekend. Remember, it's still quarter to midnight on Saturday there.

Aye?! It's still that time where? Are you talking about Korea, or somewhere mysterious between Cuba and Canada?

You know very well I mean Langley, or Quantico, or Bathesda, or wherever the Defense Department put the army medical server.

You understand that this information is provided to you by the US Department of Defense, right?
