Not sure about the finer points of computer wonkiness but
this is from Robyn about her new page(s).
go to www.archive.org and enter the URL. They take snapshots
of all sites every once in a while and old pages will be there. Of
course, if they want to order something, they'll have to take a real time
machine! But, it's useful if they just want to read the info. I just
checked my site and they no longer seem to have my pages from before 2000
although my site started in 1997 and I thought I visited before. Perhaps
they delete some archives over time. I would hope not for the sake of the
hundreds of invalid links on my site. Not many people know about
archive.org though.

IIRC www.archive.org only started working "properly" in the year 2000, and
I'm not sure if they are up to full speed yet.

It's a megatask to keep the millions of websites archived
