The tech guy sent me an interesting note. As you might remember, Canaca charges in US funds. Even for Canadians. Well, it turns out, at least sometimes they issue refunds in Canadian dollars... without taking the exchange rate into account. Howard's moved the site to EV1, which is apparently spammer friendly. I expect he'll end up regretting that. It's sad what you find when you turn over a few rocks.

It was a long time ago now, but if I remember correctly my problem was constant downtime. Too cheap to be true! That’s funny - Canaca was the first of 4 web hosts I’ve used for Altering Time.
