Hi Aeyes !

Just discovered the same thing while posting on our homepages a thing about your latest works, the C-130. Where's the JATO button, btw ?

It seems thas www.fas.org , or the Federation of National Scientists, has been hit by censorship from the government. So if this is the case, you want see those parts of it up for several years. Wich meens, if you need info for your work, GET IT TODAY !!! They will probably close down ALL U.S. internet pages with information that can expose systems, how to make bombs etc, etc. So if this is the case, they'll also start doing it in other countries. Guess UK will be first ? Welcome to information warfare ???

But then again. It could be a normal redo of the pages (ha ha). I just mailed FAS at fas@fas.org to get an answer. Their answer will be very interesting.

Nothing to worry about, it's back up and all is still there, as far as I can remember :D
