Thanks so much, I'll be checking the page
for updates. I appreciate it.

Yes, I just went there and it seems to
be back up, but I still get 

"Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /wiki.cgi on this server. 
Apache/1.3.22 Server at nupedia.com Port 80"

When trying to see the index.
http://ia.wikipedia.com/wiki.cgi?action=index

Is this a no-no, it probably takes up quite a 
few clicks on the poor Pliny...

The Recent Changes works fine though.
Thanks so much for giving this your attention.
I look forward to getting the archive so much,
Thanks.

w/ regards,
Jay B.
