All of us have seen them- where links on websites don't work and the evil 404 error message appears. At Greenpeace, they turn this into a virtue, taking the standard computerese messages and twisting them to their own ends-
"1. The page may be extinct, like many whales, chimpanzees, and gorillas in the wild could be without your help.
2. The page may have moved, like many Pacific Islanders will have to do when their homes sink beneath the waves due to global warming.
