The GOTC Archives
Well, folks, I've talked about this long enough. At long last, here's the GOTC archive page. You may notice that I've dispensed entirely with the "issue" motif here, as this is designed to be a way to look up individual articles. (I also left the astrology columns out - they're very time-sensitive, and there are only two of 'em anyhow.) With that being the case, I also decided to arrange the articles chronologically by column instead of keeping the issue/week format. You may also see that some of the articles - most of 'em, really - have different names on this list. That also ties into making searches easier; some of the actual titles just ain't that descriptive. You'll also spot a couple of "extras" throughout the list. Anyway, on with the show....
