Say where 
 I don't know what he's talking about (yet... give me time, and maybe space), but Danny Ayers takes something Ben wrote, something Britt wrote and something I wrote and uses them as some kind of example.
 
About 1995, I think 
 Peter Van Dijik in poorbuthappy: The Ugly Underbelly of the Web. The longer I work with large corporate intranets, the more I am amazed at how ugly they are. He concludes with a question I've been asking since clueless (and I know there is clueful) database-driven Web content display reared its broken head way back when: What was ever wrong with giving every destination page a unique URL?
 
Call for Helpquake 
 Last week we had an earthquake in Big Sur that hit 6.5 on the Richter Scale, killed two, and dropped several buildings in downtown Paso Robles.
 Yesterday we had another quake of exactly the same size in Iran. It killed twenty thousand or more and destroyed the ancient city of Bam, which comprised perhaps the largest mud brick structure in the world.
 Talk about terrorism. Mother Nature gives us the real deal.

Or the casualty of almost 4000 of our fellow countrymen and women belonging to the poorest class of the Iranian society?...
Loopy Superstring's Manifold: Two of Bam's hospitals have collapsed, crushing many staff, and remaining hospitals are full ...
 Most of those links also have information about how to help. Let's give it.
