Will the lies never end?

When Dick's server began accepting weather data from CWOP, both findU  
servers connected to his server to provide the greatest possible  
reliability. A few months ago, apparently as part of their decision  
to prohibit full feeds, the link stopped providing data. At that  
point I removed it from findU's connect list, but the reason was  
because the data was no longer being allowed to flow to findU by the  
Tier two sysop.
