Sorry for any erratic behavior today. I am trying to upgrade to WP3.1 and a few plugins. It is not going as smoothly as hoped.
UPDATE:
WP3.1 upgrade completed. I didn't realize it required a DB upgrade, which made it difficult to roll back. Luckily, pressing on resolved the issues and it was "successfull."
Also upgraded the contact plugin software, and with some tweaking it now works.
