Note: Many of the news links on this site are from Nevada
dailies. In late 2006, the Reno Gannett-Journal began nuking
much of its archive. If you encounter any broken links,
I encourage you to contact
them and send
me a copy. On the one hand, they want to build their
web traffic in order to increase the price of ads. On the
other hand, they are killing that very traffic. Far be it
from me to reconcile the Dilbert-style motivations of an
outfit for which a 38 percent net profit is not enough.
If you can explain it, please enlighten me. (Before
you e-mail me anything complicated, please read this bulletin

In early 2008, the Las Vegas Sun "upgraded " its
website, nuking more than a dozen years of links. If you
find an orphaned Sun story, search their site for the title.
