Subject: [Leica] Afghanistan Government Denies Access to Flickr & Blogspot

I don't yet know if it is universal in Afghanistan, but our service  
provider has started to intercept any Flickr or Blogspot web site, and  
puts up a notice, "Access denied by the Government of Afghanistan".   
So I cannot follow Tina's construction blog for instance.

As yet I have not assessed how many other communal sites are  
effected.  I will be seeing Wendy tomorrow and will check if it is the  
same with her provider.

Fun and games - I just hope they don't find the LUG Galleries, with  
all that politically motivated material.
