By Larry Sullivan

NORWALK, Ohio - 9:15 p.m. - Two steps forward, one step back. No, make that two steps back.

The attack of the weepers appeared to be under control, with all of the workers converging on some final areas near the finish line abbout half an hour ago.

Then came the bad news - the shutdoiwn area weepers had returned, so the big cluster at the finish line turned into two clusters.

Meanwhile, the racers continued to socialize in the staging lanes and the fans patiently waited for some racing action.

We are still on hold and Mother Nature is having way too much fun with us. It has been five hours since this drama started and we are no closer to a solution than we were then.

Stay tuned, we'll let you know when things change, one way or another.
