Well, I have yet to see the failure again. Unfortunately, that doesn't 
guarantee anything given the intermittent nature of the failure, but I think 
that there's a good chance that it's been fixed. I'll post about it if it 
happens again, but I think that for the moment, we can assume that it's been 
fixed.
