In case anyone missed it
In the chat today a guest posted:

guest 13:06 : to terry, and all the other lame asses who oppose progress. Panos has been contributing to the buffalo economy for years. the dilapidated buiding next to the restaurant is coming down! Dont knock someone just because there successful and your stuck washing dishes.

That is some serious classist bullshit! Elmwoodstrip.com appolgizes on behalf of any dishwasher out there who read that.

To mak ethis even more ridiculous, someone using the same computer as the one who posted that guest post, went ahead and made a review of Kosta's on the restaurant site

Serious Site Drama
The site was down for most of the night. I really need a fast reliable, reasonable cost host. The host we currently have changed something in the way that $_SERVER['TRANSLATED_PATH'] was reported. I changed all references to $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] and it worked. I wonder why it changed. It had worked in the code for months. Oh well.
