Thanks for the background, Thom, on the goings on
with silkworth dot net.
I wondered if something seriously had happened of
late to the website with all the ads and web bugs I encountered that I swore had
not been there before.
I thought it was just me.
That's really really sad to hear.

And is still available
[Moderator note: Yes
but it's now being run by a rather nasty person who is trying to use it as a
money grab. The reason that silkworth.info is down is because this person
attacked it with "DMCA takedown requests" and had the silkworth.info forced
offline so that the silkworth.net (that they purchased from the old owner and
yes, that was the mistake, the old owner believed that he was giving the site
to someone who would care for it, not exploit it) version of the site can stay
up... but with lots of very shady ads and web bugs. Forcing silkworth.info
offline was cruel and the new .net owner should not be benefitting from this
in my view.... but currently they are benefitting in very shady ways. And YES
this is all on topic for AAHL. It leads straight to some important sources for
our research being available, accessible and not corrupted by opportunists.
What can be more important than that? -Thom]
thank you so much all of you. Will and??be up
again? so sad to see two extremely important websites go offline. I do hope
someone has archived the files though.?
kind regards
Liese
[Moderator note: I do indeed have copies of both sites and at
least one of them is being worked on as I get time. :) -Thom]
