I realize that my reply was terse, even rude. However, the message to 
which I responded, to my stressed ears, sounded demanding, in the tone 
of "it should be fixed, why not"? Possibly it wasn't meant that way. If 
so, I apologize for my own over-reaction. However, put yourself in my 
place. I am a volunteer who puts hundreds of hours into maintaining this 
site. To have it hacked is stressful enough. Then to see a message that 
seemed (maybe only seemed) to imply that I should have jumped more 
quickly to get it fixed tipped me over the edge.

I have pointed out earlier that I caught this hack early this morning 
and had fixed it. Unfortunately a reset of the server restored the 
hacked home page. I have fixed it again and I'm working on identifying 
how it occurred.

No more need be said about this episode.
