why has the site been down a few times in the past week? and google description

i have tried to get on a few days ago around 9am and the site was down and the yesterday i tried to get on around 8pm (i think it was 8pm might have been later) and it was off line again. has anyone else noticed this? i was just woundering if everything was ok or if it was going to crash again like last time.
ALSO i wen to google to see if i could ge on the site from there and when i did a search for "thirdgen.org" under the website it gives a description of the site and it says
"Message boards, frequently asked questions, a VIN decoder, and articles on the
third generation Firebird." it does not say anything about the camaro we might be missing out on people trying to find stuff out on camaros

On Friday, i'm sure there was some behind the scenes work being done because the server was rebooted.

Dirk is likely the only person who can provide specifics, and if you noticed he rarely posts, but i doubt that this is any sign of a server crashing. As large of a database TGO has, with this vB software, and with updates/patches/configurations, it isn't abnormal to have some downtime.
