A slightly eclectic and personal group of authors, written with
personal memories make this article pop. Come for the reading, stay
for Adam's bedroom eyes.

I don't understand how this works. Each of the likely looking links on
that page take me back to that page. Where's the actual content?

Took me a bit to track it down, but it opens in a seperate tab/window
from one of them.

Presumably this is one of many reasons why digg is about as well liked
as a pair of dingoes kidneys after a heavy night of drinking.

Anyway, I think the relevant link is this one:
