Welcome Back To The CIC

As you can see, we're still experiencing some extreme technical difficulties, but we have this new server up and some backups have been replaced. A small percentage of the internet has redirected wcnews.com to the new machine, but it'll take a little while for everyone to make it. Thanks for the concern and encouragement people have been sending as we fix this poorly timed problem. We know a lot of you make visiting the CIC a small part of your daily routine, and one of our main goals right now is to restore the daily front page activity. I expect regular CIC updates to resume Thursday (Live from Atlanta!).

We're Here!

Yes, www.wcnews.com is finally starting to redirect to http://67.19.216.109/, so that's a big relief, but that's not what I'm talking about here. Hades and I have stormed the beach in Atlanta and set up our base camp for the annual Dragon*Con Wing Commander fan gathering. ace and Blonde are touching down in Hartsfield as I type this, and Wingnuts of all shapes and sizes will be arriving steadily over the next two days. Larger galleries of pictures will be available tomorrow.

Here's one important shot though. They finally fixed the missing possessive apostrophe on the Hartsfield International Airport sign. That's been bugging me for years.
