Well, Mark, without being paranoid - I too found the link no longer worked, "Error 404", though both my partner & Doug used it, then I went to the Times, could no longer find it among the topic headlines & typed Philip Pullman in the search window, found the link, it's the first article that comes up about "Malevolent voices..."- and the same "Error 404" appeared. Makes you wonder - has it been pulled? (Pull- man, ha ha) Have the powers that be...??? mj Power always thinks it has a great soul and vast views beyond the comprehension of the weak; and that it is doing God's service when it is violating all His laws.
