[Genome] FTP Connection error

[Ann Zweig]

Hello Christopher,

	Thanks for the report and sorry for the inconvenience.  For some 
reason, our ftp server is being hit particularly hard by users today. 
We are taking measures now to try to resolve that.  You should have 
access again very soon.

Regards,
