Gremlins Banished: Newsletter Links Problem Fixed

By David Farrell

Dear Subscribers,


While switching our website over to use a secure HTTPS connection, we ran into some problems with the links in our newsletter not resolving for some readers. You don’t need to know all the nerdy reasons for us having done this other than the fact that Google recently changed how it stores information for searches.

We apologize for the problem, which is now fixed.
