I tried to get in through webflyer.com. No go. Never expected FT to be down so long. Where there is an event, I will note the location & time as soon as it appears in case of system crashes. I was planning to attend a FT dinner by LAX but I did not want to drive the 80 miles one way trying to figure out which Thai/Chinese restaurnt in the LAX area the event was held. (that was my limited recall). I am not complaining at all. I will have to print event postings periodically that I will be attending in the event of a future server crash. My fault for not doing so. Missed a very good FT event.
Bottom line: Kudos to FT for keeping this great site operating more than 99% of the time (my guess on up time) in spite of massive growth!
