Links from The New York Times are often removed after a short period of
time, so therefore the articles and photos have been archived into the
newsgroup "Society's Chid" - If the links do not work, you can read
each article by clicking onto the links below that I have posted. They
will take you to an archived version of each article that I have copied
for longevity.
