DNO, I was not aware that your system was down. I suppose that I was just too busy for the weekend.
My plan was to access your Website last evening but I received a telephone call and that was the end of my plan. 
Happy to know you system is operable. Occasionally they do break down. No exception banking institutions. Imagine going to the bank and when you arrive there, you are told the system is down, ATM and all. This is a dilemma for customers.
Then being at the grocery store, ready to pay for your groceries and electricity goes out. Being stuck in an elevator and the lights go out.
We could cite many other instances when systems break down. How inconvenienced and disappointing for those who are affected especially enterprises as yours.
No computer, no service no business. I visualize your anxiety and concern then.
Thanks for letting us know. I really thought the NJIC had closed down DNO, LoL.
Thank you DNO for making it back, and thanks for the apology. I love my DNO!!! What would I do without it!
DNO, it is so hard for some people to apologize when they have done something wrong or, in your case, caused some inconvenience. It is a good that you offered the apology and a great example of the right thing to do, given the circumstances. Thanks for the service that you provide.
Thanks to you DNO for letting us know.
I was kind of worried, thinking that you had blocked me out because of my long comments–Hehehehehehehe! But can you believe what goes through the mind when we do not understand the reason for the problem?
Glad to have you back, my day is never complete without you. And that is a “truth”!
Ha! Ha!I know what you mean. I thought the same thing actually. I really thought DNO had blocked me out because of my many and long comments.
What a relief!!!
Aaaaaaaaaaaaah! We ought to be ashamed of our dirty minds, against good people. Hehehehehe!
Anyway lets us give thanks to DNO again, for the nature of patience and tolerance which they exercise with all of us–not only the few of us with that writing addiction. The truth is their news article provokes that addiction in us as well–it is so difficult to resist.
One Love
I am happy your back! Thanks for the apology.
Thanks DNO,I missed your weekend fun and all , you provide great service to Dominicans abroad
Never miss the water till the well almost run dry. D/cans imagine if we loose D.N.O ? so cherry what we got, do not take it for granted and do not think any one is bigger than D.N.O. From where I am I rather have my D.N.O. Win loose or draw I am hooked on D.N.O. Cause I am Dominican: Are You???. Apology accepted.
Mr. Astaphan would come up with a plan. He would invoke some doctrine or principle like the Doctrine of Necessity by the Operation of law for the Generous and Purposive interpretation of that unfortunate circumstance using some legal rebuttal presumption of reliability and convenience of DNO etc etc. etc ………….man our lives would be less interesting without DNO. Like you I am so hooked.
By the way, during the late 1990’s we used to get live online Marpin News via a website called Cacafete.com.. What has happened to that? Can we lobby to have Marpin or SAT TV news broadcasted over the Net so that our Dominican family and friends in the diaspora could tune in to TV news from Dominica?

I’m happy that you guys are back
I realized something was wrong, but did not sure if it was from your end or mine, your apology accepted
Like I said others are watching and reading. DNO insist in publishing the story from this mentally ill individual showing no concern for the victims that are involved. Get it right.
Thank U Jesus!!
Now dont ever let that happen again
. I cursed NJIC so damn much that you will not believe. Hopefully they were not behind the “beyond our control” part of the reason.
Assertive, NOT Agressive!
LOL ohh boy that was good… thanks for the chuckle… THANK YOU JESUS!!
i think you guys are doing a great job things like that will always happen from time to time so dno big-up your chest APOLOGY ACCEPTED
That’s ok. They try to take you down from time to time…. but you always bounce back.
AHHHHH!!!!!! Thought it was my computer, my anti-virus, my internet service or the initiative of NJIC. By this message, you are demonstrating your professionalism and respect for your readership. Great job!
Now please, moderate the heavy back log of comments and have then published without further delay.
With deepest gratitude and appreciations for your service to Dominica
ROSEAU VALLEY
Didn’t even notice……. LOL

Apology accepted:-)
