"They are not relevant links in my opinion. I classify a relevant link as a link on a page which, even remotely, is topical in some way."

I have to really take issue with this. When the web was relatively new, people who put up sites would link to whoever the he** they felt like, often because they had simply found a site they thought was interesting and wanted to share. There was nothing wrong with it and there's still nothing wrong with it. And, in fact, that was one of the things that was neat about web surfing in the mid 90''s----never knowing where you might end up.

The idea that a link should always be relevant to the page it sits on is FUNDAMENTALLY flawed...because if you took that to the inevitable end, there wouldn't be a web. And the web would be quite boring as well.
