A link that can safely be left unclicked.


Well, I thought that I'd link to an audio of Pete Seeger singing his version of the song, but I can't find one. And then I said to myself, "if I link to the song don't I have to link to the 'original version' first?", which in turn led me to find many too many fundamentalist sites to which I really have no interest in linking. The phrase also shows up (how could it not?) in countless articles that attempt to explain how to use different internet search tools, and there's no reason to link to them either. Ultimately, we'll simply forego the rather dubious pleasure of clicking on a link that does nothing to enhance the subject under discussion. Even this page was rather superfluous.
