Issue with Cloudflare

[TJ]

There were 278,444 requests from Baidu (a Chinese search engine) in the last 24 hours. I blocked them. It should be faster now with more of the US bots blocked.

You can see some big spikes in the amount of requests when it slows down.

Special thanks to opus for sending a donation to help pay for this month's Cloudflare service.

Thank you Opus!!

I would like to send Todd money also if I could!! -- I SEE HOW HARD IT IS TO RUN THIS SITE!!

Todd: I left you an email on how to allow HTTP with cloudfare.. (Then your HTACCESS file will dictate things again)

Looking at the "Currently Active" list, I think this was a key find--thanks!
