sites, especially forums and pseudo directories
that *routinely* mask outbound url's automatically
*devalue* their status in their reader's eyes.

wouldn't it be wonderful if google would also
implement this little heuristic. easy to program,
not much needed in cpu cycles.

for an example of a forum that does this, you need
look no further than the screen you are looking at
right now.

at least blogs just link out without all these
tricks.
