Why is it so impossible for me to get here? I log into the home page and click on general questions and it always times out. Some other pages I can get to no problem, sometimes I can find a page that has “the go” to choice at the bottom and finally get in that way but why can I not get in on the home page??? It is REALLY frustrating. Is there not a log in page that will let me in straight away???  
:mad:
