Why did I get this error message?

I have been logged in to Yahoo! Answers for a while now tonight, and all of a sudden when I answered a question I got this error message:

Oops

    I am glad I saw your question. That is happening to me also! I was just going to ask this! I am guessing another yahoo catastrophe? I saw someone is getting the yahoo is on a coffee break message.. I haven't got that one,,, yet... ARGH yahoo.. they get us all addicted then mess up.. Whats up with that?

    OK I had to edit this.. Now I am getting the yahoo is taking a breather. They are probably trying to fix their many bugs...

    Not sure what it means but all i did to fix it was hit the back button on my browser and then hit submit again (i was answering a question when that popped up). Maybe yahoo has the hiccoughs ... again.
