That is incorrect.  tinyurl.com has "never expires" in bold+italic on
their front page.  Given the generic linkrot of the Web I think any
URL in an archive should be suspect, but at least tiny keeps theirs
around even if the target goes away.

I don't think the question was whether or not people on this list are
capable of cut-and-paste.  The question was "why do i get different
behavior on ixda-discuss than on other lists?"
