Mea culpa!

It seems that a goodly number, but not all, of the links on some of my recent posts (and probably older ones as well) have gone the way of the dodo. It appears that some of the resources I use have decided that they want to charge for access to 'historical' news material.

I had tried to limit posts to extracts and paraphrases, allowing you to go and read stories for yourselves, mostly in an effort to keep posting light. Seems I will have to be more selective in my site references, at least for linking purposes.
