    Because of articles like these, pointing to content-free airhead blathering sites that are the internet's equivalent of Fox "news" and the "National Inquirer", which exist solely to smack a bunch of ads and pop-ups in your face when you click on anything.

    Viewing it in lynx is barely worth the bother, even. Some people complain about the dupes. I complain about these sites.
