    Yep, it's shutting down, but permanently, not just temporarily.

    The statement clearly says that beginning April 20th the site will be "read only" .. . . and it will disappear completely on May 4th.  What part don't you understand?

    And for all the doubters:  why don't you go take a look at Yahoo Groups?  They said it would disappear in December and it did.  Period.
