I am of course talking about the chat.  Week after week the same pattern emerges:  If I first log into the Java chat at around 6:30 PM GMT (about 12:30 Central) I have no problem getting in.  But if I log in at chat time (7:00 PM GMT) I invariably get the doom message of "Unable to connect to server/Connection close".  This is a trend, not a coincidence.  It has happened every time I try to get in for a month and a half now (I was out of the house at 12:30 today).  Is there any explanation for this that would not require knowledge of my computer and its peculiarities?

Are you logging in from the same place in both instances?

The Scots (originally Irish, but by now Scotch) were at this time inhabiting Ireland, having driven the Irish (Picts) out of Scotland; while the Picts (originally Scots) were now Irish (living in brackets) and vice versa. It is essential to keep these distinctions clearly in mind (and verce visa).

In the world it is called Tolerance, but in hell it is called Despair, the sin that believes in nothing, cares for nothing, seeks to know nothing, interferes with nothing, enjoys nothing, hates nothing, finds purpose in nothing, lives for nothing, and remains alive because there is nothing for which it will die.
Dorothy L Sayers

The hardest thing to explain is the glaringly evident which everybody had decided not to see.

Yes.  Anywhere else I log in there is no problem.  Trouble is, there isn't anyplace local open on sundays that has Net access.
