Ahhhh, glasshoppah, you have divined the true meaning of 'viatologist.'
Only by by remembering that Carl has this for his underlying motive for many
things will you find inner peace.

That, and he's always trolling for site hits to get his hit count up.

My favorite part of that: "The term "via" refers to one of the earliest
highways in western history, the Appian Way (Via Appia)." Or, you know,
it could "refer" to itself, what with "via" just being the Latin word
for "road" or "street" (and surviving as the Italian word for street).
What a pompous ass; he actually thought he was being clever here.

In light of that, I was surprised that in the discussion of previous
uses of the term nobody mentioned James Lin's old link site from before
the turn of the century: ViaGuide (later AboutVia, which is still
accessible although not updated in years).

Could you possibly move all of WHL to this purging temp directory?

Never mind this stupid West Coast stuff. How about a nice picture of a cow
path in Tennessee? That's more important than irrelevant Western stuff.
