Margaret Liss to the rescue :
Seems someone got the www.amomentofcerebus.com domain and points it at the blog. So if I take the bits off the end of the regular site and add it to the amomentofcerebus.com one, then presto. Lets hope it sticks.

Update on the wiki from Philip R Frey: It now has 400 articles, including all the ones on people, place and things that I have located on the Internet Archive of the original wiki (there may be more hiding if I scrape around). I have now begun the laborious process of copying over the individual issue articles. I am doing this in order of "wanted pages", which means I do whatever issue has the most links from other pages. As of this moment there are 562 "wanted pages" thanks to pages I couldn't find in the archive or pages that I feel need to be made and weren't on the original wiki.
Anyway, I'm posting this update because it's the time of year where these kinds of projects sort of grind to a halt. I won't be doing much more until the new year. Anyone who wants to help is free to do so, but please check with me over there to make sure you are sticking to the templates, tone, etc.

I had to do a double-take; at first glance, I thought the guy holding up his copy of SDOAR in the Forbes screenshot was Steve Bannon.

Tony again said...

Oops; he's not in the Forbes screenshot, but just below it.

(As an acknowledged "Epoch Times" reader, my guess is Dave is a Bannon fan...)
