Wing Commander Surf Theme Washes Ashore

Two years ago we reported on a live recording of the Wing Commander theme. Fat Man and Team Fat's surf version of the original theme song was performed at the CES Show. Over the years the track has become difficult to find, so we've put a copy on our FTP. You can download the 2.6MB MP3 here. Team Fat's upcoming gaming soundtrack, which will feature Wing Commander music, will include the surf theme as a bonus track.

Holding The Line Chapter 166

It has been an unusually busy Sunday for the CIC staff so far today. Fortunately Raptor is never too busy to send us a HTL chapter.

Hey all, Raptor here.
HTL continues with part one of "Into The Inferno", a series about the final battle in Nifelheim written by yours truly. This chapter "Something Wicked This way Comes", picks up where my Tiger Hunt series finished with the main fleet's arrival in the system and the plans for the climactic battle, and parallels our more recent chapters. Your comments are most welcome.
The story is at: http://homepages.ihug.co.nz/~theraj/archives/ch166.htm
Also, for those of you who can't wait till the stories are published on the mailing list or the CIC, we're undertaking another big update of the HTL Archives. Watch this space.
Best, Raptor
