Daves Raves - Lost In Cyberspace

Tuesday, September 8th, 2009

A strange thing happened to Dave The Rave this week.  Just as I was getting back into the swing of things, I find myself lost in cyberspace.  Certain people including myself, could not access this website from Thailand.  This is very frustrating, especially when I had just announced that I would be publishing my bi-weekly column on Sundays and Wednesdays.  I had no control over the circumstances, but I do hope there was no inconvenience on your part.  Normal service will be resumed very soon.  Cheers!
