updated 6/27/07.


i did not have time today to hit every single link in the FAQ and verify them to be good. as always, if you notice dead links -- please post them here and i'll either try to find the updated link, replace the link, or attempt to mark them dead with the hope they may come back.

 

This might be helpful for FAQs. Might be something on it there already../shrug
