The WELL is Down!

My long-time online home, The Whole Earth 'Lectronic Link has been unavailable for several hours now - the longest unplanned outage I can recall in over 10 years.

I no longer have any staff member phone numbers but I called their office and spoke with Gail Williams, Director of Community and she pointed me to http://www.salon.com/wellstatus/ - where recent status info should be available. She also told me that people have sent flowers and left goodwill messages ("beams") on the WELL's voice mail.

Update: Looks like the WELL's command-line interface came back up just before midnight April 14th, Pacific Time.
