I wasn't so concerned about the order it appeared in (which I beleive is ranked
by what best matches your search criteria, not time-based), but the fact that
it displayed partial content for an article you can't actually view.
I don't mind if Todd wants to keep the articles for Lugnet historical purposes
and make them unreadable, and I don't mind if he chooses to make them
completely visible to the public in an archive that everyone can read but not
post or respond to. But I'd really rather that if someone can't read *all* of
an article I wrote, that they not have a way to see *any* of an article I
wrote.
