Weird, er, ah.  That was the first time the blog's ever been down that I know of.  I was posting remotely via BlogJet (the blogger API) and somehow the new dasBlog 1.6 Cache got out of whack.  I recycled the Worker Process and deleted entryCache.xml, categoryCache, and blogdata.xml and I'm back.

For those who care, here's the event log:

Looks like some schmutz around the small cached portion of the Xml Data Store is corrupt, there's no Assert() or check for null and null is inserted into the in memory ASP.NET cache?  The first dump shows EntryIdCache freaking out, then the other cache didn't stand a chance.  Looks like maybe the Radio Upstream happened JUST as I was sending data in via the Blogger API?
