FIRECalc: Service Unavailable

I get that periodic updates are necessary - how long do they typically last?

I tried using FIRECalc today (5/31) and got a message "Service Unavailable"...been like that all day.

Sorry about the issues. Dory (FIRECalc founder) and I are working to get the site back online. He edited a file last week and it appears an article in the WSJ might have swamped the server. Hopefully we will have it back up shortly.

Regards,

Andy

You know something?
It's not a big deal. We all know it will be fixed eventually, and we're grateful for your efforts.

Andy,
Much thanks for all that you do.

I too saw that article, but had been FireCalc user before then.

I had some updates I wanted to run thru to see the 'what if' results.

So, thank you.

It's all good! 100% success rate!
