I clicked around a bit and expected most links to be dead but surprisingly all of them worked. Then it crossed my mind: Because it was the first page there was nowhere to link - so no external links, no dead links.

Look at that HTML, it's so quaint. 80-column aligned. Uppercase labels. No <HTML>. <HEADER> and <NEXTID>. Numeric NAMEs on all the links.

And it uses <DL>/<DT>/<DD>, which seem sadly forgotten on today's web.
