<h4>Links</h4>

<p>These are some of the websites that found their way into my bookmarks over the years. Quite a
few years, since some of these require the Wayback Machine to view now. Posted because if I find
these pages interesting, chances are someone else might too. Note that this list is not anywhere
near exhaustive.<br />
<br />
Please do not send me suggestions for websites to put here. While I am sure you mean well, I much
prefer to discover these things for myself.</p>
