Thanks much, Michael, for pointing me to this.  And thanks to Lonna Beers
and Madeleine Taylor for also pointing out this URL--it's exactly what I
need.  Thanks also to John Hubbard for pointing out Hobbes' Timeline at

http://www.zakon.org/robert/internet/timeline/

and BrightPlanet's info at

http://www.completeplanet.com/Tutorials/DeepWeb/summary03.asp

As usual, Web4lib rocks.
