Rumors is currently undergoing a modest re-design that will allow us to fix the recent database bugs and re-introduce 'standing pages' for easy navigation of recent articles on various popular topics.

We are also re-implementing other features to the site which have been missing since the site was turned over to its previous editorial team in 2001 when founder Ryan Meader was first affected by the chronic pain conditions which held him, and the site, back for so long. (You can read more about this at the Founder's Corner, which also explains how you can help Ryan get his young family back on its feet after five grueling years of pain and crippling medical expenses)

We are in the process of assembling a new editorial team to manage Rumors in the interim, but in the long term Xerces Media is seeking to sell the site & domain to an individual or group who can afford a fair buyout price and who will make good use of the site's remarkable history to make the next 12 years even better than the last! If you or your company might be interested in a buyout of this site, please contact us at x@xerces.com for more info or to begin a negotiation. Revenue-sharing with a writer or writers who just want to handle the editorial side while Xerces continues to manage advertising & hosting is also a possibility that we would consider.

Please bear with us as we complete this site revamp and resume daily publishing during the weekend! Some pages may be dead-ends for the next 12-36 hours, so check back soon if you encounter any error pages; they should be transitory.
