      Hmmm, on my phone, can't think of why. A sibling post gave me an archive link. I normally don't comment on broken anything, I assume it must be me... But, Douglas Adams, I had to see that!

        It's not you. I got the archive link because I got a 404 in the first place (through https://testpilot.firefox.com/experiments/no-more-404s https://testpilot.firefox.com/experiments/no-more-404s )

      Thank you.

  Thank you for that, I'll add the link to the article. I never knew he wrote this, it's eerie, and I wonder what he would write nearly two decades later. 49...

  There are not many people who I mourn for but DNA is one of them. I wish he were still around to make gentle fun of us all.
