Demise of Open Access?

I was thrilled to note that the href="http://sciencepolicy.colorado.edu/prometheus/archives/climate_change/001258sokal_revisited_i_.html">Journal
of Geoclimatic Studies
offered open access to their
papers.  But as of today, the href="http://www.geoclimaticstudies.info/">website
is down, with no explanation.  



Whois href="http://www.networksolutions.com/whois/results.jsp?domain=geoclimaticstudies.info">shows
that their site was created on 11/2/2007.  Pity, it last just
one week.  Funny thing is, most of the authors of their papers
are, likewise, href="http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/11/09/bacteria_belching_co2/">nowhere
to be found. Not only that, but their academic departments
have vanished.  



I guess I better hope that ScienceBlogs never disappears.
 Hurry, people, click on all the ads!  Ack!
