I have been away since the middle of January, so I have some catching up to do. The forum was finally migrated to Version 5 software, so there is a lot to learn about. I notice that Leonard's avatar pix is gone, so that needs to be researched. Also the pix that greeted users is gone, so that has to be looked at.
Also there has been big changes at the HFW site lately (for the worse, unfortunately).
On the 27th of February, 2014, the domain of www.hotforwords.com expired. GoDaddy parked the domain on a page which offered the name for sale. On the 5th of March, it was renewed. This is from the whois record:
And so forth.
After renewing the domain name, the HFW site has been changed: The home page shows lessons from 2011 instead of the latest topics and posts from 2013. Why 2011? You can get to the latest topics from the VIDEOS item on the banner menu.
Some of the menu items give errors, but fewer than a few days ago, so it appears somebody is working on it. This will have to be looked at to see how bad it is.

BTW, they use a trick on the E-mail address in the whois. If you paste the text of the whois, what comes out is "email@GMAIL.COM", so they are trying to keep spammers from scraping the E-mail addresses. I had to type it in manually.
