Here is a tip while DR1 goes through what can only be referred as "cyber flu".
When responding on PM or on the boards, prior to pressing the submit button, copy and paste your response on a word document.
Save it with a title such as "PM response to XYZ" and then go back to the DR1 window and click on the submit button.
That way, if you lose the PM/reply/whatever, you will have a copy for later use and not have to write a long reply that eventually went nowhere.
I've been affected by this for a couple of days now and one time last week.
