Today at work, for the first time, LessWrong.com got classified as "Restricted:Illegal Drugs" under eSafe. I don't know what set that off. It means I can't see it from work (at least, not the current one).

How do we fix it, so I don't have to start sending off resumes?

I went to the eSafe site and while looking up what the "illegal drugs" classification meant, submitted a request for them to change their status for LessWrong.com. A pop-up window told me they'd look into it.

You can check (and then apply to modify) the status of LessWrong here.

Thanks! I did as you suggested, and it seems to have been removed from that category, since I can access LW from work now. :-)

Ahem, back to analyzing aircraft...

Yes, that is what did it because I had chosen the category, "Blogs / Bulletin Boards" whether that is the most appropriate category or not. They have a fast response time!
