Back up and running. The reason for the downtime was not my being hacked (which I think was due to an insecurity in the WordPress version I was running and resulted in my index page being written over), but instead because I am transferring hosts in preparation for my move to Seattle. I found a pretty amazing deal at dreamhost.com where you can sign up for a year of hosting for like $9. The trick is to use the promotional code 777. Let me know if anyone detects anything funny about the host.
O brave new quantum world!
Test.
