Try it, you'll like it. You can find things here you won't find elsewhere.

This one appears on a list compiled, largely from your work as he told me, by my friend Max, before he left here. http://maxqnz.com/References.html

Dear friend Vernon Compton: Have you forgotten that your good friend Max, in a temper
tantrum erased that whole list before he left, and now as sjm chooses not to restore it.

Dear VC: Oh, lovely. How about asking sjm to return it where others will see it and be
able to use it. We have a lot of new members it might benefit.

As his friend, I would not characterise his actions as a temper tantrum. There was a very different motive for his actions. Whatever his motives were, he told me that he never removed that particular page when removing all the others. That is why I assumed that he would not mind my publicising it.

Despite your rather disappointing willingness to judge my motives harshly, Dr. Bill ( you were completely wrong as to the reasons why I did what I did, fwiw), the References page was never taken down. This was largely because at least 70% of the links there came from you, so I never viewed that page as mine to take down. Feel free to use it, and to suggest additions.

Dear sjm: If the inferences I drew from the disappearance of the material were in error,
I regret that. Some of the things said to Wordsmith seemed quite unkind. This colored
by judgment.
