Today Tabnet closed down Operation Clambake (www.xenu.net).
Allegedly RTC has sent them a complaint about the
"Orientation Film 3" animated parody image. (yes, the one
with the image of that naked space alien!)

You can see it here:

   http://www.xenu.net/archive/orientation3.html

I still haven't seen the complaint, but I suspect RTC
didn't like me using their image of the the crossed out
cross on the first slide.

After some e-mails and phonecalls over the Atlantic,
the page is now opened again. Not much success for RTC
this time, just some hours downtime.

They didn't contact me in advance, and instead of just
closing one file, they closed the whole site. I'm not
sure yet if they understand the controvercy here and
they might even believe I did not remove the file (I've
edited and replaced it) and they might close it again.
Please write them a polite e-mail if you got the time
and keep an eye on Clambake!

Their address is here:

Best wishes, Andreas Heldal-Lund
