Mark - I appreciate the work you've done with this, and so will everyone 
who uses it in the future!

At this early stage I think it is better to pour in as much as possible 
(...altho the word "pour" doesn't at all reflect the effort it clearly 
takes) and that things are tweaked at a later stage. Obviously, all links 
decay, so we will need to come up with some correction system eventually. 
As for now, even a dead link is valuable because it still brings the 
information that there is *supposed *to be something of value there. 
Without the dead link we wouldn't even know that.

<:-)
