Did we shut down the OWW site?

I just went to the OWW site (http://www.canadianbacon.org/~oww/index.html), and it's been closed down because they had 125 GB of traffic in September. I can't help but think that all of us downloading pictures for the Visualizer had something to do with that :- . It's a shame, because it was a heck of a resource for such things.

If everybody who read that posting and ten of his friends downloaded 50 pictures are 30kb each, that would have accounted for 14.3 GB... so it's definitely not just the TNM folks.

Also, I did mirror the site a few weeks ago, just to be safe in case something like this happened. Will get in touch with him to maybe have it return hosted here.
