Awaiting a solution from our ISP

So why hasn't http://www.okchistory.com/ not been updated in two months? The answer lies with our ISP and our lack of experience in running a web site. So now I ask your advice... the web site as we last updated it still stands for all the world to see. But to update it in the novice-friendly webbuilder program provided as part of our ISP contract, we would have to start from scratch due to a data base crash. Is this true? We are trying to find out... it seems odd everything is still intact, yet we can't save it.
For now, let me recommend a great new book - "Whatever Happened to Molly Murphy's House of Fine Repute," written by the widow of the restaurant's owner, Bob Tayar. Anyone with a memory of this classic restaurant will enjoy this tell-all expose on Tayar's brilliance and extraordinary weakness for not being able to simply be content with success.

Thanks Doug. We've gotten the page rebuilt for now. But I might want to visit with you in the near future for some mentoring on web building, etc.
Have you gotten to check out the Molly Murphy's book?

Not yet ... but it does sound like a fun book about one of those little jewels gone by! I enjoyed your review of the book.
