"since 1969.." I Mean: ..that was a mere 11 years +/- since I'd gotten from Distributor: Sony's first transistorized 'HiFi tuner-grade' portable radio (it was veritably a block diagram of the Fisher (tube) FM-100 tuner du jour.) Some diverse links I betcha the IGM hasn't stumbled across, like the 'Koch allies' one: yeah it's ALL fucking-BAD for anyone with independently-functioning neurons (and Not-secretly longing-to-be: one o' The Moloch Gang, with their own island with a million rounds of ammo, etc.) Anyway, should be good for a few giggles while ..whistling past the Cemetery of the Late/Great NorteAmericano 'Dream'-world ... now staring into _{[the void]} .

Contemporary with above: some early-Feb examples of the re-framing [!!] of previous existing pages. Doubtless similar to EPA's fate. Are these two areas first on Trump's list of Rapid + Severe mayhem, in anticipation of his being tossed out PDQ? It appears that he prioritized these Revised-history attacks; now why would he Do That, hmmm? No idea if.. the censored items here described have been? shall be? sent to dev/null, including pernicious erasures of all backups ... nor have I investigated the effectiveness of some number of reported Downloaders/anticipating just this sort of Historical Revision-via-tips found previously in fictional Dystopian novels. (Of course too, there remains (remained?) all the material accumulated but not routinely available on website. We all knew since forever: how much easier destruction is than creation, in every context. Carrion. ..What a flagrantly unappetizing place-name to have on one's passport. (unless one had arranged a bolt-hole Elsewhere, having read the tea-leaves for decades. Slick move, That.) Joan Baez is now singing, Oh, Freedom from early '70s via KQED's Time Machine for fund-raising deja-vus.]

No mention in the interview about when to destroy, change erase data. It was all about get the data, collect it store it and replicate it without changing it in any way. Sounds like the usual thunderous bupulations of the climate religious leaders panicking that their mealticket may be yanked away.

E.g. http://web.archive.org/web/20170119110042/https://www.epa.gov/ The data and reports and all the rest won't be "lost" even if Donnie's minions try to make them go away. Yes, it will be harder to find, and it will be easier for his people to ignore the science and change the framing, but the data and knowledge is still there and available to the scientists and the public. Similarly for http://web.archive.org/web/20170119192520/https://www.climate.gov/ and the other "inconvenient" government sites. Cheers, Scott.
