A Note About Links

  • Link rot happens.

  • It’s as inevitable as vegetative decay, radioactive decay or rust.

  • The older a piece of my writing, the more likely to encounter dead links. I use links in two major ways: (1) citation to authority; and/or (2) more information.

  • In re citation to authority, sometimes I list the person or entity of authority before, in, or after the link, so you might try searching on those terms. If I didn’t so elaborate, we are out of luck.

  • In re more information, in some cases, the page or source document is just gone from the Internet. In other cases, it has been moved or is available at another URL link. Search based on any information provided. If I list the title of the document, search on that using quotations to limit search to precisely that phrase.

  • If you are so bothered by lack a particular live link such that life is no longer worth living, they you may contact me. There is a chance I saved the webpage or document and it is on my hard drive. However the chance of such is about 1 in 15,300, which happens to also be one’s chance of being struck by lightning.
