[CQ-Contest] Ice Storms in NE

[K1TTT]

Power is back now so the web site should be accessible full time again along
with the cluster node.  Direct URL for the maintenance blog is:
http://wiki.k1ttt.net/2008%20Maintenance%20and%20Upgrade%20Blog.ashx#Bottom
That takes you to the bottom with the latest stuff, scroll up a few days to
see the ice.  Click on the pics for a full size version.
