SNAFU @ area 51 pic site

The shittin' web site at the web address published by the NYT yesterday for aerial photos of area 51 has been down since I posted it.
Thanks for D.F.s comment with link to a Yahoo news story on possible reasons why.

The “Full Cleveland” as I remember understanding it from a guy I knew who grew up in St.Louis (Missouri folks need someone to look down on) is it’s merely the conspicuous matching of white belt and white shoes in male attire. However there are several tack-ons associated with the phenomenon. As per Alex Wilson (of Detroit) “It’s always better if the belt and shoes can be shiny like patent leather (but not leather) or even the wet look”. It is the ubiquitous accessory to the leisure suit (preferably one in tan or light blue with darker same color contrast stitching) with open collar (no tie) and also as per Alex , gold chains. Alex add’s “The sporting party can be characterized as a used car salesman type”. My favorite sighting is TV’s Herb Tarlich of WKRP Cincinnati. Radio spot salesman Herb sported the look all throughout the series and I recall he once mentioned that he had to go to a special golf pro-shop in Kentucky to get one particular model leisure suit. Alex mentioned he found a couple of links which bear out his points, although I couldn’t find them. I spoke today with my brother just to make sure I had it right too.
