Tribune came out of bankruptcy, what, a month ago? Can I say this without irony? A lot of people had 'issues' at many levels. I look forward to the new ownership whomever it turns out to be, but don't hold out much hope for any real change. Times is “between owners” expected to be sold any day.

Back online and reinstalled with the fixes but he thought it was a huge security exploit at the time.. Glad I read Boing Boing instead of the LA Times. :P
