Once in a while in a big blue moon, I can't access the official page but
never for more than 2 days in a row.

It sounds like somewhere along the chain of servers between Oz and JJ, one
of them has no idea how to "resolve" the domain name.  If I recall my
networking classes correctly, all of the backbone servers have "roadmaps",
references to access (in a blink usually).  They provide a  domain name and
get back an IP address.  Then they use the IP address to "find" the page.
The IP address is an ever more specific series of numbers, unique on the
planet, specifying first a series of backbone servers, then the address of
the actual processor that "has" the page.  In some cases pages are stored or
cached in several places.  It could be that your ISP is trying to access a
cache that doesn't exist anymore but they should be getting an error message
_and_ _acting_ _on_ _it_ to remap the domain.

Anyway, there may be a way to look up the physical IP address of JJ's ISP
but then I suspect the new problem would be that the chain of servers
wouldn't know how to resolve the IP address.

I'm forwarding your question on to Les I. and Chris M. cause they seem to
have the biggest "geek" credentials around here.

In a separate email, I'm sending

1.  the welcoming screen on the official web page, jonimitchell.com

2.  the "News" section that's just inside the welcome screen, and

3.  The essential essay on the official page.  Of course I'm speaking of
"Our Lady Of Duality", written by some wannabe in Northern Kentucky, USA.

See ya soon,

Lama

trying for months, both here at home, and using my work PC (networked, so

faster) with no success.  It keeps telling me the server is down, or the
connection has timed out :o(

Any ideas?
