Letters to the Editor

It is your retinas and your browser cache and your ass that gets to explain to your wife or a jury. You can do with them what you want.
When was the last time anyone went back and read Glenn or anyone from 2 years ago?
I do it all the time.
And besides, you are wrong, I design web sites inter alia, and I can tell you that a link to a newspaper or blog is MUCH more transitory than a link to tinyurl. They often break.
If the original link is broken so is the tinyurl. You are only adding one more possible point of failure.
And finally, you can call Aych or anyone here an "idiot" if you like, but you will find few "idiots" here, and most certainly Aych is not one of them. But he can, and probably will, speak for himself.
I don't think Aych or anyone here is an idiot, but my limited communication skills prevent me from expressing what I am actually talking about with out rickrolling people to some pictures they will NEVER forget.
The internet is a dark place. HARD and NASTY. One day you will know what I am talking about and you will call yourself an idiot.
Tinyurl is the work of the devil.
