Many thanks to the Andrew W.

Most Sincerely,
Tim Stinson and Dot Porter, MESA co-directors
Sorry about that, Norman. I have a message to the tech team asking what the problem might be. For what it's worth, I was just able to create an account in seconds. Did it get stuck at the point where it asks you to create your username and password?

Worked for me too Dot. I did get a brief error saying communication with the server was lost. But I'm a multi-clicker (i.e. the person credit card companies are talking to when they tell you not to refresh the page). In this case hitting the submit button a few times seemed to convince it I was serious.
