Thanks HandySolo. It is obvious that WP is a labor of love for many. And it makes sense that it is a Technorati problem, as we had not changed code on our sites.
Same thing is happening for me. So I guess we are not alone and someone either at Technorati or WP will soon be on the case. But then again, it is a holiday weekend here in the States, and who knows if anyone is listening or cares. ??
