!!!PLANETARY SERVICE ALERT!!! ( Important notice)

Dear World:

The United States of America , your quality supplier of ideals of liberty
and democracy, would like to apologize for its 2001-2008 service outage.

The technical fault that led to this eight-year service interruption has
been located, and the software responsible was replaced Tuesday night,
November 4. Early tests of the newly-installed program indicate that we are
now operating correctly, and we expect it to be fully functional by
mid-January.

We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the outage, and we look forward
to resuming full service ? and hopefully even to improve it in years to
come.

Thank you for your patience and understanding,

The USA
