Yes, Lynx is listing the absolute article numbers in the header as you can
see from the header list.  Articles 9-20 have either expired or were
killed or for some other reason don't exist.  This is standard behavior.
Maybe what's confusing you is the fact that Lynx is displaying them with
an OL style list and the numbers before the articles don't match the
article numbers...
