===Content===
This site seems to be a place for "members of the resistance" to remind the visitors of the site that "they have a voice."
The site contains links to a tools page and a forum, leading to anotherversionofthetruth.com/artist.htm.
The tools page has stencils of the [[Media:800x600.jpg|Art is Resistance logo]] in various forms, such as desktop images, and stencils. The AIR logo might be seen to resemble, highly stylized, the hand-shape known as "[[The Presence|the Presence]]" (a thumb and three fingers).
If you wait on the main page for a few seconds, a red box will flash on the screen playing the alarm sound from the ''[[Year Zero]]'' track, "[[Vessel]]." The red box shows this message:
===External Links===There are two known links on the main page. The first links to a previously undiscovered thread on [[Another Version of the Truth (website)]]. The second links to a 'tools' page which provides downloads of the [[Resistance Logo]] in various formats. "STOP!

----*This may relate to biblical passages:**38: John said to him, "Teacher, we saw someone driving out demons in your name, and we tried to prevent him because he does not follow us."**45: And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life crippled than with two feet to be thrown into Gehenna.*Another way to look at the numbers is that .38 to .45 is a reference to gun calibers, and not religion.

*These dates could be a phone number, or manipulated to find the next clue.*The dates given by soonerlater about his mothers death may link to the fact that on the 19th of April 1995 a truck bomb at a federal building in Oklahoma City exploded, killing 168 in an anti-government movement. This seems to fit in with the idea that some people on the thread are choosing to show their resistance through art and not violence due to the loss of innocent life violent events can cause.Info on this event can be found at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oklahoma_City_bombing* Note the b. and d. (as in born, and died). It appears soonerlater was making a reference to his mother's death in the OK city bombings as an unnecessary casualty of violent resistance.*Another point to ponder... from President Lyndon B. Johnson's State of the Union address:<blockquote>Jan. 10, 1967: ...We have chosen to fight a limited war in Vietnam in an attempt to prevent a larger war--a war almost certain to follow, I believe, if the Communists succeed in overrunning and taking over South Vietnam by aggression and by force. I believe, and I am supported by some authority, that if they are not checked now the world can expect to pay a greater price to check them later.</blockquote>
