I mean that some publications hav a feature about what happened on this day
in 1986, etc. If the date on an article is a link to some page that is
robotic, then maybe it could read something like a concordance -- one
sentence from every article containing that date, click on a button to get
article titles. I only followed a date link once, and some interesting
things were there, so I can't say I know much about what can be done with
date links. So, I guess my question is...does every editor want their dates
automatically linked? Maybe it should be a user preferences option. Will you
ever follow date links? Hide date links?

"Copies on optical disk must be gifts." is a pretty open license and so

I've only had one personal "liked it" review (And he was looking at
version
three; I'm at version five.). My sister's copy will be late for her
birthday, yesterday. In any case, since I'm designing it for a-capella
training, there's really only one test of whether it will last. Did I
mention that I hav another arrangement in mind? Point is, that some
numbers
don't really matter, unless people remember.
Sorry, I'm not seeing what this has to do with date links or the price
of tea in the PRC.
