Evrim – yep, this is a terrific find. Thanks for posting the NYT’s link. For blog posts, however, I use a NYTimes link generator that saves you an your audience from having to “log in.” Check it out here – http://nytimes.blogspace.com/genlink (just set the Bookmarklet up on your browser window, view pages in NYT and when you want to generate an archival link just click the bookmarklet … then copy and paste that link here in your blog … voila!)
