I dig this site as well, and have had trouble accessing it the past 4 days.
Incidently, the URL DOES have a "2" after the "WWW"... the site I'm referring to
lets you customize for Iridium predictions for your geographic location....
http://www2.gsoc.dlrdot de/scripts/satvis/detailform.asp
And I found the following site to be the best in determining EXACT Lat/Long
for any U.S. locations:

Re: troubles with access... I received "No response from server" message
the last 4 days I tried to get "Iridium predictions for next 7 days". Last nite
(Sunday), and today, though, I was successful in accessing it... And even with
my speedy T1 line, it took longer than before to call up the page. As was
previously mentioned by one listmember, this site seems to be getting heavy
usage so just be patient.
All this Iridium flare/glint business has been quite the "thread" of late
here on the list.... ANYONE SEE ANY METEORS LATELY!! ;)
