    Looks like it's open again already. Something must have hit the fan real

    FCC Reopens Reference Information Center to the Public.
    Public Notice: Word | Acrobat
    
    Traffic seems too heavy for me to download the bulletins just now.

    FYI, they have removed the final sentence ("In addition, the Reference
    Information Center is closed...") from the notice on http://www.fcc.gov/.
