rain scene, home, Falmouth, Virginia, USI got an email about an outdated hyperlink from a person who was looking at one of the pages, http://www.webliminal.com/Lrn-web07.html, I’d constructed several years ago to go with a chapter in

    URLs are used to point to files online or on a local hard drive. They come in five different formats, file, gopher, news, http, and partial.
