Fidelity failure

I was out of the market last week except for two stocks, with the money I handle
myself.  With this further deterioration I decided today to get out of those two
when the Dow was down about 175 pts in the afternoon.  I could NOT get on
Fidelity's Website after a half hour of trying.  My wife was waiting
(impatiently) for me to leave so I consoled myself with, "Maybe it will finish
higher".  Now I wish I had just tried to make a phone call and pay the price to
get out.  Anyone else have a problem?  What happens in a real meltdown?????
This cost me a couple of thousand, what if the whole wad rode on some kind of
account servicing???
