Firefox gives me a blank page when I follow that link.

So does IE.

Just FYI.

There seems to be a lot of ocurrences of this situation:

I can't see the web page unless I'm using Chrome?

That alone earns them the Fuck You Award™.

Wow--look at Vijayanagara just plummet off the map in 1565.

Quote:
Wars with nearby Muslim Sultanates and Hindu Vijayanagara continued through the 16th century. In 1565, the Vijayanagara leader was captured and beheaded, the city fell to a coalition of Muslim Sultanates. The conquered capital city of Vijayanagara was looted and destroyed, after which it remained in ruins.

Wonder if the couples-that-met-online-numbers jibe with a rise in the divorce rate?

What category includes Woodstock, Isle of Wright, SxSW, and the Monterey Pop Music Festival? Or do sex, drugs, and rock & roll not result in marriages?

Curious is a relationship over the decades between college and church.

I was wondering about the Internet part of the 60s and 70s - the 60s I can't explain, but the 70s could be stretched to include the earliest instances of bulletin board systems.
