I tried re-connecting (dial-up) and after getting back to Freerepublic with an empty cache, I still got the article in question. Either I am getting sometihing different that you all, or it was taken down then put back up, or it was never taken down, or, who knows..

After some work, I was finally able to get a page where asia times says the article has been pulled because it was based on a hoax....so there you go
