Idealfly - certainly seems to be still there, on your second address.
Maybe your computer was having a bad day!
It is a great site.

Getting timed out responses and garbled nonsense. My computer is not working ideally today. ;(

Anyone know what ˻ ϴ. Ʈ ְų ؾ մϴ. says in Korean?!? This is the message that keeps popping up.

When flights first used the polar routes they advertised that they were following "the great circle". On our flat projections of the globe that way seemed further, but if we recall that the earth is round, then it is the way to go. So they used that description.

The nicest route maps I know are from Finnair. Studying them gives one a totally new perspective on distances from and across the top of the globe.

1) Turn off PC
2) Unplug all electric lines for 3+ minutes (also from external modems)
3) Boot/start again
4) Run an Anti Virus program

Good luck!
