Sean McPherson writes " OLGA (the On-Line Guitar Archive) has been harassed by the Harry Fox Agency once again, and has (at least for the moment) shut the site down. As a full mirror, ntr.net has always kept daily updates available to the public, but we're complying with the request from the OLGA admins to close ours off as well. This kind of things REALLY needs to be brought to the attention of the public. HOW far does legal ownership of ideas and such go? If you need any more info, just contact me directly, or email the people off the site at www.olga.net. "
