I have been getting what seems an empty page for the last few days. Switching to perlmonks.com solved the problem for me and until I saw this thread I just assumed something was wrong on perlmonks.org. Hitting refresh or even ctrl/refresh in Chromium still gave me an empty page. With live HTTP headers in firefox I see:
