Is anyone else getting message "no connection" trying to access YouTube?
This has been going on for a few days and I can't figure out why. (Only when using my iPhone)

This network is blocked due to unaddressed abuse complaints about malicious behavior. This page checks to see if it's really a human sending the requests and not a robot coming from this network.

Has this happened to anyone else? Is there something I need to do?
Thanks in advance!

Earthquake insurance??
I was wondering if I ought to take out earthquake insurance. I live in the SF Bay Area. How are you Californian DU-ers dealing with this? I've read it's absolutely necessary and I've read it's not really.
Opinions?

Also, this plant has little pink flowers (normally)
