Why are there no copyright notices on the Nutters.org website?

Mostly because we believe in the advancement of alternative concepts. Copyright is an encumberance on a document, and we believe that ideas will proliferate to a greater extent without that encumberance. Thus if we wish to advance alternative concepts, we will do better by not encumbering them with copyright. Also, copyright itself as a concept has become part of an encumbent paradigm that we wish to question. Leading by example, we like to place our work in the public domain where we feel it can do the most good. Nutters.org isn’t supposed to be a money-making or publicity-seeking exercise, and so copyright is of no particular use to us. There may in fact be situations where we decide to assert some sort of copyright, but they will be the exception rather than the rule, and we will not assert any copyright that prevents the content from being freely redistributed or mirrored.
