oh I am sure it's that case in 100% -- like killing off the nasa.gov and nps.gov websites.. really ... I am guessing "all" these website 'redirects' are more for publicity on the shutdown than actually the sites not being able to function with out people behind them (exp since most of the sites are just static content give or take updated here and there).
