Thanks xxx.
For those, like me, that don't go to the Travel Talk "home" page every day, here's the note on the new forum format:
===================================
Changes on the Way
Loyal Fodorites have asked for a "heads up" whenever we're planning to implement changes to Travel Talk, so here it is: This Saturday morning, March 31, we'll be switching over to a new, improved version of Travel Talk.
We've been testing and perfecting this version since the beginning of the year. Travel Talk will look and function much the same as it did before, but we've added a few bells and whistles, made the software that runs it faster and more dependable, and improved the search capability.
We hope you like the new format. Feel free to let us know what you think of it in Saturday's Grab Bag question---"What do you think of the new Travel Talk format?"---which you'll find on the Travel Talk home page the moment we switch to the new format.
We'll be in touch again soon.
Best,
Dave Downing

Cute, Ed - - but it's abundantly clear that the site, overall, keeps time in New York, where the Fodors managament team is located.
And don't you suspect that the "change" is going to be applicable to ALL the forums - - not specific to Europe in any way?
I anticipate that if anyone does "stay up til dawn" (or afternoon in Europe) it will be observed that the site will be "down" for some period of time in the next 12 hours.

FYI: 12:45AM EST and all's well. If the change was scheduled to occur at midnight, one of three things took place:
1. It didn't work
2. It was so minor, I can't identify it.
3. The sitemasters heard your cries of opposition & decided to leave a good thing alone.
