Go to [http://www.echoingthesound.org/phpbbx/viewtopic.php?t=20517 this thread] on ETS for discussion of this website
The URL for this website was found on a [http://www.ninwiki.com/images/9/91/Resistancepk0.jpg red flyer] at the Feb. [[2007/02/22 Paris, France|February 22, 2007 ]] show in Paris, France. The logos shown on the site are consistent with the [http://www.nin.com/current/photos/2_21_07.jpg 2_21_07] image posted on the nin.com/current site.
===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).
===External Links===There are two known links If you wait on the main page. The first links to for a few seconds, a previously undiscovered thread red box will flash on the screen playing the alarm sound from the ''[[Another Version of the Truth (website)Year Zero]]. The second links to a 'tools' page which provides downloads of the track, "[[Resistance LogoVessel]] in various formats. " The red box shows this message:
==Theories=="You think spray painting shit is going to make a fucking difference? All this art crap might make you feel better, but the cops are laughing their asses off as they haul you to jail. You want to make a difference, switch from .38 to .45, assholes. " - TheWardenSTOP!
This may relate to biblical passages:By viewing this site, you are in direct violation of the FederalOrderly Conduct Act (Section 24.13.1).

*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. Suggesting TheWarden wants them to amp up the damage.
The dates given by soonerlater about his mothers death may link to the fact that on the 19th of April ===Dates===<blockquote>b. Jan 10, 1967<br />d.

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>
