Ummmm, hellooooo, McMod! Reposting the article to help the rest of us read it (because the site is already/.ed and there were only three posts, including the FP, when I started writing this) cannot, by any reasonable person, be considered redundant.
Someone please mod the parents informative, and throw an Unfair to the moderator if you get this in M2.

Actually, it's not slashdotted, it's just really slow.
He mentions it's running on a sun box with apache. He also mentions that the last time it was on slashdot it didn't go down. This has been my experience with apache on sun. It may sometimes be very slow... but you'll eventually get the page in most cases under heavy load. Sun's app server works in the same way. I don't know if it's their philosophy but the servlet engine comparison's I've seen, the other servlet containers I've seen, Sun's product starts slowing down a bit earlier than the others under stress, but it returned far fewer errors.
The point is, if you wait 20-30seconds, you'll get the page.

Checked though, Sharon with a Hitler moustache and a broken link. Though is it that inflammatory? It looks like a protest sign from a demonstrator.
