Y!A "We're taking a breather message"...does the "it" refer to my patience?

Question

here's the message...  grammatically it looks like they are waiting for my patience (the last prior noun) to recharge:  

We're taking a breather...
Yahoo! Answers is taking a coffee break. We appreciate your patience while it recharges!

and it does seem to show up primarily in the heated elections/politics categories

LOL LOL and ha hal. I get that all the time and it used to piss me off thinking I had to wait  , until I realized you could just hit the home key and type away again. My only hope would be when I hit that home link it sound a alarm and whoever is working near buy gets a jolt energy.

Most of the time it's because they are bogged down by inflammatory or inane questions and answers. And yes, it does happen alot more in this forum. Occupational hazard type thing.

*  Why the thumbs down? I was not referring to your question, see how sensitive this forum can be?

I just refresh, back button, refresh, back button myself silly until I gets what I wants!
