Cynthia,
I just tried this:
http://199.217.241.56, as you suggested.
What I got was the SOG home page. However, as I have seen many times before, it is mostly a shell. The rotating (refreshed) image at the top never loads (x) and many (not all) of the images throughout the page do not load.
I cannot successfully link from anything on the page with some exceptions. For example, the Connie Erickson link, which is an SOG hosted site, will not come up. However, the Marvin Mattleson link, which is independently hosted will come up. With these type of exceptions, everything else indicates website not found. If I try to go to "competitions," it says website not found, "forum," it says website not found.
Also, when I first initiated this:
http://199.217.241.56, it took about 60 seconds to load the home page that I described above.
Also, the other two sites that you suggested came back website not found.
