[Note from Matthew Gaylor: I've been getting the Muslim Student
Association News mailing list (MSANEWS) for many years (it was
created in 1991). One of their editors used to subscribe to my
mailing list and he lived nearby. They went dead for about four
hours this afternoon from about 2pm onward- The message below
details their view that their servers are being tampered with. I
tried to send a posting this afternoon titled "Anonymous Tip Web Link
Now Available Worldwide to Report Information to U.S. Authorities"
which came back with an error message. They appear to be up and
running again. MSANEWS Home Page: http://msanews.mynet.net/,
Comments to the Editors:
many Arab and Islamic networks are having a lot of troubles distributing information during these tragic times. We do not know if we're being jammed, if the internet is slow (it almost came to a halt on the day of the tragedy, as detailed in the news; Aljazeera.net said the slowdown was worse than the day the virus 'red code' hit).
Your service, MSANEWS, has been receiving multiples copies of the same message, empty copies of message, still receiving multiples copies of the infamous worm from two months ago, etc.
Your list, as well as others of well-known national organizations have experienced a lot of technical problems for the last 10 days or so. We have no clue about the processing problems or their origins.
It pains our hearts that we cannot distribute what you share in a timely fashion. The horror of the second airplane still haunts one of our editors, and it disgusts him as he writes these words. We are extremely depressed reporting depressing news of killing and mayhem for the last year since the start of the intifada, and more now. We are losing our sanity reporting the ugliness of the world (torture, imprisonment, destruction and mayhem). By Allah, we are. And by Allah, we are just sick, sick, sick of all of this. When will this all end?
