This might explain it:

On the weekend of July 4th, the Indianapolis, IN area expierenced two 
days of severe thunderstorms. At some point during these storms, our 
data center lost power for several hours. When we finally regained 
power, we found a lot of damaged hardware (including UPS's). It is 
suspected that we took a direct lightning hit.

The main FreeLists server is currently out of commission and we'e 
scrounging for replacements. The extent of data loss is currently 
unknown, but we'e hoping to not have lost any. Several other servers 
(name servers, file servers, etc.) are also apparently a total loss.

Until replacement hardware can be put in place, both FreeLists and its 
sister service, MailandFiles.com, will be unavailable -- that 
includes all web and email services. I can be contacted at my work 
address, jmadden@xxxxxxxxxxx, if anyone can offer any assistance. 
We'e currently in need of:

# High-grade motherboards (dual or quad cpu, Xeon / P4)
# CPU's to fit those motherboards
# UPS's to replace our pile of burnt plastic. APC preferred, each at 
least 1000 watts.
# Storage: The state of our storage is unknown with no way of 
accessing it, but we're thinking it may be a total loss. SCSI, JBOD, 
250+GB needed.
# Money: it feels dirty, but we'll need to buy whatever we can't get 
in donations. This stuff costs several thousands of dollars.

I'll keep this page updated whenever possible.

Can't find any traces of it on the live page that's there now, though. 
Maybe it just came up and hasn't been updated? (I'm on another 
FreeLists hosted list that also came back to life just a moment ago.)
