I wouldn't mind it, provided the primary url is http://www.ldraw.org. The
connection has been phenomenal for me throughout the months of development
of ldraw.org, but as of recently I have seen the need for a US mirror. I
know Zlatko Unger has not been able to connect to ldraw.org for a couple
days. He's in Atlanta and I'm in Chicago, so obviously if I can get it its
a machine in his path that's gumming up the works. Does anyone else still
have trouble connecting to ldraw.org?

Yeah, same here. Geocities is dog slow, and now that they've yahooed like
everyone else, its worse.
That's one thing I can't stand. When internet companies take over other
internet companies that have been around for a while. Even if you don't
like the company taken over, it still takes something away from the look &
feel of the internet. Four11 is now Yahoo People Search, webring is now
a part of Geosucks, and we now have Yahoo! Geosucks. I like plain Geosucks
myself. And what's with the stupid Yahoo! exclamation mark???!
