I did something silly and disabled a crucial plugin, disabling the site for a few days. I have fixed it now, and thankfully it was something simple that occurred to me fairly quickly. Sorry for the inconvenience!
Speaking of inconvenient, I am having trouble with these Japanese keyboards. Not everything is quite where it should be, though it is close…
Well, at least they appear to be. A certain select group of test victims has been dragooned into service, and we’ll see how this goes and whether they still speak to me afterwards. 
I’m sure there will be some tweakage of settings. It looks like it’s better to be actually registered on the site, as then you have more control over the type of mail (HTML/plain text excerpts/plain text full post) and if you’re interested in only specific categories.
I finished bringing over the old phpbb posts for this, and it’s available here:
2002 12: The Journey To Uzbekistan
It’s broken into subpages, and I don’t have the navigation fully set yet, so currently you’ll need to go to that main page, which is mostly just an index, and click the links below and use your back button until I get a navigation framework up. You can also see it in the sidebar under Articles / Trip Reports / 2002 12: The Journey To Uzbekistan, though the subpages don’t show up there. There will eventually be so many that it would be unwieldy in the extreme.
Well, it’s time to start unveiling things here, so we can get an idea of the shape of things to come. I’m pretty pleased with the framework I’ve been able to build so far and I think the usefulness of a site like this will be significantly higher than the old phpbb forum. Let me know what you think.
I’ve put in some old data as a bit of filler, so yes…some of these posts ARE almost 3 years old.
