Lex, that's a very witty analogy.

I had no idea the sight was in utter chaos.

As opposed to a race car, we are dealing with various components of code within an overarching environment.
It may not be necessary to take everything down at one time to perform fixes.

For example, the forum can stay up and running, while the stories section is repaired and vice versa.

However, if Tiger decides it all needs to come down for a short period of time, then I'll support that decision.
