Why are people up on cloud 9? And not cloud 1-8?

In 1896 the International Cloud Atlas was published.  It listed 10 diferent kinds of clouds.  Cloud #9 was cumulo-nimbus, which is the highest type of cloud there is.\n\nHope this helps :-)

yahoo does not boot people. your internet connection probably got interupted 3 times, or another yahoo user probably used a boot bot on you 3 times...

Because some sofwares requires changes to be done to the hardware and you have to restart the system for that to happen. But the newer OS are more intelligent in most cases, so, they do no require the system to be restarted while others don't require any change regarding to the hardware.

Dial-up servers can become crowded, they have to thin the herd sometimes.If you are not browsing/surfing, it is assumed you're dozing and drooling on your keyboard, and didn't see the 'Gonna disconnect ya in 43 seconds' message that should pop up. It's also partly for safety from online diseases.

Are you blaming this on Bush because you cannot find reason to blame it on the clouds?

The higher the number of users, generally the faster your entire file will download. Because on ARES you're not downloading an entire file from one user, but partial files from a number of different users. So the more users are online with the file you're trying to get, the better the chance that when one of them finishes downloading another one will be right behind it to continue.\nAlso, in your control panel make sure that you're not set to download too many files at one time. With high speed internet connections, between seven and ten is a good number. If you have dial up, I wouldn't recomend trying to download more that two or three at a time.

The phrase to be on cloud nine, meaning that one was blissfully happy, started life in the United States and has been widely known there since the 1950s; it’s since spread worldwide. It’s said to have been popularised by the Johnny Dollar radio show of that period, in which every time the hero was knocked unconscious he was transported to Cloud Nine. But that wasn’t the origin of the phrase. It’s been around since the 1930s, though early examples show a lot of numerical variability, with the cloud sometimes being as low as number seven or eight or as high as thirty-nine, though seven and nine were most common.\n\nThese discrepancies make me suspect the usual explanation of its origin, which is that it comes from the US Weather Bureau. The story is that this organisation describes (or once described) clouds by an arithmetic sequence. Level Nine was the very highest cumulonimbus, which can reach 30,000 or 40,000 feet and appear as glorious white mountains in the sky. So if you were on cloud nine you were at the very peak of existence.\n\nThe term has always had close associations with the euphoria that is induced by certain chemicals—alcohol in its earlier days but more recently crack cocaine—so perhaps we shouldn’t ask for too great a level of exactness in counting. And the cloud here is an obvious reference to some drug-induced dreamy floating sensation. But I suspect, without having anything so restricting as evidence, that seven was chosen because it’s a traditional lucky number and that today’s more usual nine appears for similar reasons—for example it also turns up in dressed to the nines and the whole nine yards.

It might be because their servers are down and they are repairing / updating them. You might want to check back in an hour with them.

It means that the person you are downloading from has reached his or her set limit of upload slots or bandwidth. They obviously don't want 20 people connecting to their computer at the same time. This is usually limited to just a few connections at a time, so you are "queued" until someone has finished downloading from that person and disconnects.

Maybee the server is full! If the problem doesn't solve in max. one hour, you may have a problem with your internet provider!

Maybe some people are at work and got in trouble for being on Answers instead of doing their job. So, they have to do their work before they get fired. Or they think their computer is going to crash today, because of the three 6's like it happened on Jan. 1, 2000. Crash Day, Crash Day, Read all about it. Beats me why they aren't here, but they sure are missing alot.
