What happened? physicsforums was unavailable for a couple of hours, approximately. Obviously it is back up running again now.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Power went out for about ten minutes here in Toronto.

And Toronto is the centre the universe, after all. As any Torontonian will tell you.

Since this is a physics forum a more apropos example is ”fusion is 30 years away.”
Repeated every 10 years.
