MITH Tables Tutorial (different from last week's): http://www.mith.umd.edu/teaching/tutorials/tables/index.html
Just looking through the course plan and I noticed that this link doen't work because of the slash at the end. The page still loads, but nothing linked from it will.
Simply deleting the space in your browser's address bar after clicking the link shoudl allow you to browse normally.

The reason I found this amusing is because last week I had commented on the way one could move around the site following the links like a choose your own adventure book.
Another random comment…after leaving class on Monday I realized that a hard drive is similar to an etch-a-sketch in a small way. Just as a hard drive never fully deletes something neither does an etch-a-sketch. Yes the initial image is gone but there is always a trace of the previous image…this is especially true as time goes by
Yeah so these were just random thoughts passing through…lol
The etch-a-sketch is a very apt comparison and one in fact I've seen before. The conventional wisdom is that under the proper conditions up to seven layers of overwrites can be recovered from the surface of a magnetic disk.

When I first started web design, I used table within table table within table table within table within table within table within table within table within table
you get the picture
