While composing my msg I wondered the same thing - so I checked.  Here's
the scenario I tried.

lynx http://altavista.digital.com/
"crystal lewis"
search

Page returns.

Link 41 says: www.huh.net/diary/1824.html]

I follow it and see:
                                                            404 File Not Found

                                File Not Found
                                       
   The requested URL /diary/1824.html was not found on this server.


I do a g and lynx gives me an entry goto entry 'widget'. I press up arrow
and I see
http://altavista.digital.com/

rather than

http://www.hun.net/diary/1824.html

like I would rather have seen.  I press up arrow several times to confirm.
