Despite my hatred for timezones and daylight savings time, I've taken this
instance down right on time. If you need anything from the database backup
that I'm about to run, feel free to ping me.

Also I've left a pretty barebones 404 message on the instance for the
stubborn or careless - follow the link to the new instance, please :)
