I don't like paginated posts.  I especially hate doing google searches
on something for http://blog/foo/page/2, but finding out that was
cached 3 months ago and it's now on page 7.  However,
/foo/archives/2006/6 never changes.  If you really want pagination,
write a plugin.

Jamis has a better one that counts the articles in each month.  I
planned to yank that for Mephisto at some point.
