Note on Liber 194

The notes to the copy of Liber 194 on the NIWG site are out of date. Since they were last revised, Grand Lodges of OTO under X° heads have been established in the UK and Australia and the Electoral College has been instituted (after a fashion) in the former province at least.

Mirror, Mirror (2)

Turned this up while looking for something unrelated:

www.geocities.ws/nu_isis/

This appears to be a copy of the site from shortly before Geocities closed, and postdating the last changes I ever made to it. Have not checked through absolutely everything yet, but spot-checks have so far found nothing missing (the stylesheet, graphics, PDFs, fonts &c. all seem to be there; even the MIDI files tho' most browsers will need obscure plugins to play them now). This appears to be part of a project to preserve / archive Geocities sites; it is so far unclear whether it will be possible for me to actually take control of the site.

I should perhaps mention that two of the Yorkshire OTO bodies mentioned on the front page, Shekinah Oasis, Sheffield and Templum Amoris Lodge, York, no longer exist, having been closed down due to some messy internal politics in UK Grand Lodge earlier this year. Some of the offsite links are probably non-functional, especially a few absolute links to other Geocities pages.

Regards,

T.S.

Addendum: The server-side ad scripts used by geocities.ws result in the framed version of the site not displaying in Chrome (I suppose nobody uses HTML framesets any more, bear in mind the original coding on this site was done in 2001 or so and never seriously overhauled subsequently); if using Chrome, select "no frills version" from the front page, or go directly to


Firefox seems to be OK with the frames version.

Amused to note that Google Ads decided that "Just Christian Dating" was clearly suitable to be stuck on the text of Liber AL.
