Modified: . in_the_news.html Added: info in_the_news_1997.html Log: Split "In the News" by moving older articles (using the info directory which is more appropriate). Also make the style a little more consistant (<em> sections used only for quotes from articles). Fix up the URLs as many of them have changed or been removed. Add a few recent articles.
