      My reply to the week in review is - I just waited 7 minutes to get to this site. Propeller seems to be getting slower & slower, frustrating not only myself, but many others I am sure.

      you have the same stories on the top of the front page for as long as 3 days, not because they are garnering more votes- they're not- but because of what I perceive to be a lack of oversight.

      We seem to have the same posters singing the same song to each other over & over again.

      James - WAKE UP Propeller, make it easier to access without the long waits & perhaps you will gain new people with new songs to sing

        What's up with the 'New and Improved Propeller'? I think Noah built the ark faster than this!

        Good WIR! Cute..

          the article about the week is well-done.

          but the most important detail, about the site itself being unavailable for hours at a time to various members, was not mentioned.

          i am one of those who could only be on for a few minutes at a time on thursday and friday. the site would not load at all. it wasn't just slow, it was absent.

          if i were cynical, i would think that aol is trying to kill it.

          The AOL conspiracy ..... your maybe on to something here Berkley. They managed to get rid of our beloved netscape logo...do you think they're trying to cut off the propella connection too?
