there both working now but hiss tank is a littile spotty

here some detaisl about that I got from another site I go to lordofthebattlefield.com a miniature gaming site which was down.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A Major explosion at the datacenter in the electrical room Saturday afternoon knocked down three walls. There were no injuries to personnel or servers. Per the fire department's orders the generators had to be shut down.

The damage was more extensive than they thought and it required a LOT of rewiring and 30+ hours just to get two thirds of the servers back online.

In total, 9,000 servers were down and 3,000 of them will remain offline until sometime late Monday afternoon at the earliest.

We are one of the 6,000 now back online.
I estimate that there could have been 1,000,000 or so websites down
(potentially twice that really) from this outage.
