We Apologize for the Inconvenience
Dear World:

The United States of America, your quality supplier of ideals of liberty
and democracy, would like to apologize for its 2001-2008 service outage.

The technical fault that led to this eight-year service interruption has
been located, and the parts responsible for it were replaced Tuesday
night, November 4.

Early tests of the newly-installed equipment indicate that it is
functioning correctly, and we expect it to be fully operational by
mid-January.

We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the outage, and we look
forward to resuming full service - and hopefully even improving it in
years to come.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

The USA
