Hi, Paul and List,
And I thought it was just me! ha! I'm using IE9, and it started about five or six days ago, for me. I can get to the calendar and the POD when I go through the MetList archives, and click on the link when you post it, Paul. http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html It's not the full page, but it'll do, for now. I use this link to get a full screen daily POD, but if you try to use the calendar function, the 500 error comes up. The comet to view past pics works, though, so if you've got the patience... I hope this helps someone. http://www.tucsonmeteorites.com/mpodPic.asp http://www.tucsonmeteorites.com/mpodPic.asp Merry Christmas!
