hopeless dreamhost

well, it seems that dreamhost is down again, well, the mysql server on dtraCorp is at least. meaning that my site is inaccessible, and that i get endless emails (not from worried readers, but automated notifications) telling me that the site is down. i'm pretty sure they used to have an auto response when you logged a trouble ticket, now it doesn't even seem that they have that, so i don't have a clue what's going on. and then i see someone complaining post about another host with basically the same features (that i can see quickly), http://bluehost.com, and here i am just having signed up for a fair well longer, and stuck with this shit box. well, i'm going away on thursday anyway, so either you won't read anything here for months and months, or there will be a lot of rants intertwined with travel posts here.
