Actually, we do. So tell me Larry - if I cited a Latvian web page, and gave a summary, would you feel comfortable blindly passing it along without mentioning the fact that you were unable to verify what the page said? What if I quoted a web page in English that was slashdotted or otherwise 404'ed by the time you tried to look at it, so you never saw the page but only what I allegedly quoted? Would you pass *that* along without notice as well? Or would you note "the page 404's for me"?
