What's with HowardForums?

Has anyone else been unable to reach HowardForums for the last 12 hours or so? HowardChui.com seems OK. It's just the forums I can't reach.

It's working for me right now.

Strange. I can reach the mobile version on my phone but my PC can't resolve the address.

Stranger still, I can go to the WAP site on my PC but can't access the regular WWW site using either Opera or Firefox.

Sometimes we don't appreciate the effort that goes into making places like this and HoFo run. I only go there about every third day or so, so I had not noticed anything. Thank you to everyone who keeps places like this running so smoothly.
