Does anyone think it's strange that the Restorers use jellyfish for their background image on the history page? What do you think that means? A clue?

This link (http://www.eilertech.com/stories/jellyfish.htm) has the provocative quote which may relate:

"Why are we hunting jellyfish, anyway? Because these aren't just any jellyfish; these are mind-controlling alien jellyfish. And they've messed with my life more than once, so I've joined the hunt. And I go to one of the hunters' briefings, and take notes. What do we know about the jellyfish? I know from personal experience that these creatures fly, have electrical powers, communicate via electricity and telepathy, and like to hang out with terrorists."

I think the background is supposed to be parachutes. If you look closely, you can see the paratroopers below them. The biggest looks like a gray blob, the rest are black outlined in a dark gray.

It was linked to on Melody's blog site.

(BTW, I was kidding about the jellyfish, though it would be nice to see one of these militia groups with a sense of humor...)

Some of their files can be seen here. Also, on the history page, the word "Liberty" is indicated to be a city in the HTML. There are several towns named Liberty in the US, but the one in Illinois seems to be the most likely reference - it is in Adams County, and Tidwell quotes Adams on the History page and in the Amboy Monthly interview.
