96/05/12: Latest news from Operation Clambake Y E S ! When I mail this, Operation Clambake (OC) has been online for 1 month! My budget for champagne is way over the limit! I think I'm getting it, Kobrin has started reversed psychology with me, making me crazy by waiting for their actions. Or maybe Zenon is right - they are trying to make me an alcoholic because I celebrate to much... Status as of now for NOTs and OT: - for six months they have been available 24 hours on Internet Relay Chat. - I've lost count on number of mirrors for Operation Clambake. Many are still up but some are forced down. - but people are not only putting up mirrors (they get closed), but they also offers to mail the documents by request. - The documents have been available from the OC page all the time, but linked to many different places. - Borkified and Jive parodies have been banned from my server, but I did not get any response when I posted them on a.r.s. - in Sweden they have put up a RANDOM NOTs LOCATOR at this site: http://www.dtek.chalmers.se/~d1dd/cgi-bin/nots-locator.cgi. - I've made a medallion for all of you who host the "secret" documents, check it out on the OC page! - to make it simple: Hubbard writings have probably never been as widely spread as these have! Why aren't the clams ecstaticly happy? Giving up? Being scared by Kobrin? No more up my sleeve?

Kobrin Notice she changed _XENU_ in one of the file names to _XXXX_!! I thought it was a joke when I heard about it, but it's not. I wonder what the file names will be now......! Bwahahaha! --- Deutsche Botscaft has sent out a official request to many countries investigation the current position of Co$, I just got hold of the reply from the Norwegian Justice and Police Department and hope to put that out on the net soon. --- A big magazine in Norway is working on articles about the fight on the net, more will come! --- I have tried to get in contact with my ISP to get some information about my case and what they have received from Co$. Sad to say they have not answered this, so I have no possibility to defend the allegation by them that I am breaking any laws. I wonder what they are afraid of? --- Co$ in Norway seems to have found a new lawyer again, let's see how long she holds out.... --- Actually there is not much to report, nothing much happens. People are getting pissed off, but what's new? Co$ can't see the writing on the wall even if we sprayed the whole Chinese Wall and placed them in front with their eyes glued open, tied to a chair giving them coffee intravenously. They would probably only try to sue the wall too.... PS: the news-server in my end is down again, may not be able to post this to a.r.s. yet. :((( By for now, keep it up all of you!
