- Dear Friends of FTW,
-
- I am working on a two-part series focusing on two ongoing
federal grand juries that reveal deep conflicts of interest with John Ashcroft
and the Vice President's energy task force. The President is refusing to
release information to the public - in spite of a court order - that may
reveal criminal activity by both men. Apparently, preventing me from finishing
the reserach for these stories has become a high priority.
Sometime between Monday, March 18 and Wednesday March 21 our locked, outside
storage area was burglarized. Business records, a computer and other equipment
were taken. The effect on our operations has been negligible.
But over the last few weeks our website has been attacked by sophisticated
hackers on a regular basis.
We have been down twice, and on one occasion the hackers took down our
entire network, wiping out several hundred sites just to get to us.
There are people out there who don't want us to get the message out. What
is interesting, however, is that an obvious pattern is beginning to emerge
through the analysis of the attacks. Once this investigation is completed
we will tell you what we found.
We have begun to mirror the FTW website on other servers. If the main server
is down, you can always go to one of the mirror sites to find almost everything.
However, the member's area, the forum, polls, and some other functions
will be disabled. Each week we will add more and more mirror sites to our
list. Please keep a copy of this list handy. If you would like to sponsor
a mirrored-site, please send an email to media@copvcia.com.
Current mirror list:

- In the meatnime, as a result of the outages resulting
from changing serves and instituting other security measures, our sales
and income have fallen off dramatically. If you have been thinking about
making a purchase from FTW, now is the time when it will help us the most.
We are not down and we will not stop. You have made it clear that you undertsnad
that the information we bring to you is helpful and accurate in these very
perilous times.
