Something went wrong with the database last night. We’ve gone from one error message to another for comment posting, but at the moment, we’re waiting for people to wake up from their various versions of the sleep of the just and give things a poke.
Until such time as we get things happy again, you are free to contemplate the jewel-like perfection of Making Light as it stands. However, if you prefer conversation, I’ve started a thread over at my place.
Updates will be posted here, there, and on the Twitter feed as they become available. The final update here will use the word murnival.
I would counsel you all to the practice of patience; many of the people who run this thing have pretty busy real lives at the moment.
Update the last: Five things make a post, but four make a murnival.Did it also fix the sloooow post times?

edit because I had time: No, apparently not. The gnomes must have hangovers.
Clearly the comment moderation gnomes took exception to the concurrent pun cascades.
With all due respect to the Cascades [which I can see from downtown], this site is the pun Himalayas.
Angiportus @6: Oh no, I can see another one coming. Run for the hills!
Angiportus @ 6... this site is the pun Himalayas

I just peaked in here, but avalanche myself back out now, OK?
Talus, Serge, have you ever heard a pun that made you scree-m and run away?
I was peaking back in, but the heap of puns is going to drive me around the bend.
(She'll be coming 'round the mountain when she comes...)
Ben Nevis. (Or: a pun cascade you couldn't join in.)
Cwm and join in the pun fun, nobody's been ridge-ected yet!
I'd throw something in, but I'm at work and I should go Sierras now.
Give Serge an idea Andes off and running with it.
As long as Fell Running is not involved he should be OK.
There's Lhotse ideas here, but we should all be Cerro Torre read the manual or else we'll be Pirin over the edge, and it's a long way down.
Also: no Hekla-ing anyone.
Well would you Lookitthat--all these puns are certainly mounting up!
Hardly surprising since Patrick & Teresa are at Tor.
With some...interesting vocabulary....
You'd think they could disguise the name a bit, or at least go for humor.
