Was Holmes Basic available on RPGnow.com before Wizards of the Coast pulled the pdfs?

See especially the post comparing the armor from this book to the Paladin in Hell in the AD&D Player's Handbook.

Please welcome Rob Kuntz, co-DM of the original Lake Geneva Campaign with Gary Gygax, to the G+ Holmes Basic community. With Dr Holmes, Rob co-authored the first article on using the Cthulhu Mythos in D&D, which appeared in Dragon #12 (Feb 1978), as part of the Sorcerer's Scroll column. This material was later revised to become the chapter on the Cthulhu Mythos in the AD&D Deities & Demigods tome.

Rob's new blog is here:
