I’m guessing you mean Tuesday, October 4. Looks like a neat idea!

(Editor’s Note: Many thanks. Yes. Fixed!)

I must say Mike, this is probably the best contest yet! (they’ve all been good, but this one is a great idea). I’ll definately be entering this time around.

That is a very tempting offer from Dreamhost! However, I am a bit put off making the switch due to the recent downtime of mikeindustries.com:

Was this their fault or yours? I was receiving this error from about 9am to 1pm GMT yesterday.

Ralph: Whichever one you want.

Phil: Yep. Yesterday was actually the first bad day I’ve had in about a year and a half of hosting. I want to say it was a lingering effect of the massive power outage in L.A. but who knows… they swapped my server out and it’s fine now. In any case, they’ve built up enough goodwill with me that I’m fine with it. For $7.95 a month, one bad day every 18 months is acceptable to me.

Does the poster need to feature an iPod as in previous competitions?

Chris: Good question. The answer is no… entries need not contain any reference to iPods.

Disaster proof? And if those booster rocket things fail? Meteor hits the dome?

There are going to be some interesting discussions happenning over at Humid Beings about the rebuild. This forum was set up by a group of concerned and passionate New Orleanians who care and have much at stake in the upcoming decisions in that great city. I hope to hear and see all of your ideas over there as well!
