Floods of listeners trying to simultaneously access the contact info for their D.C. representatives have overwhelmed a number of the SaveNetRadio.org servers as a result of today's "Day of Silence" event.

Switchboards in Congressional offices all over Capitol Hill are similarly tied up as they attempt to handle today's deluge of phone calls on the issue.

Read more about this morning's outages and how webcasters should instruct listeners trying to access these sites, in this afternoon's edition of RAIN at »www.kurthanson.com.

Today's issue will be updated continuously throughout the afternoon and evening.

Sincerely,

Daniel McSwain
Assistant Editor

P.S. If you're a webcaster and you haven't yet notified us of your participation in the Day of Silence, please let us know. E-mail feedback@kurthanson.com and dayofsilence@savenetradio.org. Thanks.

It couldn't be that the switchboards are clogged because of the Immigration bill being debated in the Senate today. Nah, that couldn't be it. So many more people are concerned over internet radio than they are over illegal immigration.
