    Rob,

    Canadians can be a rather non-responsive group at times. I suggest, for your next submission, that you finish off with something controversial, insulting or simply make a free beer offer. It's all about marketing!

    Sorry Rob, I look on there regularly but not on the artillery forum. It doesn't seem to be one of the most active parts.

    Having a Ford or Chev powerplant is quite an important qualification for becoming a busy thread on MLU !

    It remains a puzzle why some internet threads become 'hot ' and others not.

    Rich, Rob

    I am a member of MLU and on occasion will ask a question. But, the forum part, unless you are in to vehicle restoration, is very quiet. Pity that, eh?

    I know they've had some access bother in the past, but I've not been able to access MLU for a while now.

    Anyone know if they're still going OK?

    I do hope they're not gone for good - lots of very good stuff on there.
    (I can find a Google cache page that apparently shows activity over the last few days, so maybe it's just me...)

    I can get on OK at the moment and there are a reasonable number of recent posts so it looks as if the rest of the world can too.

    I havn't been able to get on MLU for the past couple of days - the problem stems from the sad death of the site owner - Geof Winnington-Ball. Apparently his family and several of the senior members of the forum are taking action to keep it going but it seems to suffer intermitent outages at the moment.

    It's a problem with their host and has been for some time. They are looking at alternatives.
