The Fans from U.N.C.L.E.: This site, located temporarily at http://delfloria.virtualave.net is one of the oldest U.N.C.L.E. sites on the web. If the comments in the guest book are any indication, however, this venerable old site has recently made a comeback unlike anything seen since 1969, when Elvis Presley put on a leather jump suit and asked worldwide television audiences if they were looking for trouble. The Fans from U.N.C.L.E.'s rebirth is the result of the complete overhaul it received this past summer at the hands of Ellen Druda and Connie?, who decided that the old site at UNCLE.org was languishing from neglect and would benefit from a new coat of paint and some new landscaping. The fruits of their efforts are nothing short of stunning. These days, if any web-surfing THRUSH agents arrive looking for trouble, they've definitely come to the right place. From the eye-catching rotating coat hook on the home page, to great background articles by writers like Kathy Creighton, Bill Koenig, and Cindy Walker, to fun stuff that includes a trivia quiz, animated cursors, and a really cool screen saver, the site has been revamped from top to bottom. With the result that, these days, The Fans from U.N.C.L.E. is more fun than a shoot-out in a dark alley. Plan on spending hours perusing it all, because if you really area "fan from U.N.C.L.E.", you won't want to skip anything. The site includes a comprehensive list o f links to other U.N.C.L.E. sites too, so this is unquestionably the place to start if you're making your trivia for which he is famous—or at least notorious—on the first U.N.C.L.E. web-crawling expedition. The list of those who contributed to the rehabilitation of U.N.C.L.E..org is too extensive to include here—which is just one more good reason to visit the site yourself and check the list of contributors for the names of "cousins", friends, and favorite writers.
