Blanket Apology
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 software responsible was replaced Tuesday night, November 4. Early tests of the newly-installed program indicate that we can now operate correctly, and we expect to be fully functional by mid-January.
We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the outage, and we look forward to resuming full service and hope even to improve it in years to come.
Thank you for your patience and understanding,
The USA
