How Do We Explain...? (10/20/97)

It's a magical day in MacWebLand. We woke up to find the sun shining, the birds singing, and two major insider-news sites back from the brink of extinction.
That's right-- MacInsider, recently thought "whacked" by an Apple-Asia-funded Ninja Hit Squad, suddenly resurfaced as if nothing had happened. In fact, the only clues that they had been gone at all are the gap in their coverage, and the short note thanking the readers who helped in their write-in campaign. (No word as to how/why they were forced off the air, though.) And MacOS Rumors, recently down for the last nine days due to "ISP troubles," sprang back into life, albeit temporarily sans DNS support.
There are a few possibilities that could explain these events. Perhaps the entire hit squad was exterminated by an underground elite fighting force, thus liberating the oppressed websites. Or maybe there was never a hit squad at all. (Nah...) The most likely answer for AtAT? Last season never happened-- it all took place only in Victoria Principal's dream.

 | | The above scene was taken from the 10/20/97 episode: October 20, 1997: (Sorry—this was before we started writing intro text for each episode!)
Other scenes from that episode: 102: Rumors Won't Die (10/20/97) So yes, kiddies, Mac OS Rumors is back and dishing dirt with a vengeance to make up for lost time. While their new DNS info filters through the net, you can reach them at their IP address, 209.100.58.71... 103: O.J. Killed Apple (10/20/97) So have you noticed that whenever something sensational yet tawdry happens in the news, a book about the event shows up in the local Barnes & Noble in about three and a half minutes? Well, when the tawdry-yet-sensational event draws out over twenty years and doesn't involve an ex-sports-star-turned-actor, sometimes it takes a little longer...
