I had had the old Mirye webpage bookmarked, then that showed up as dead, so I 
did a google search and located a PDF of the article in the case studies. I 
don't know if there is a link to the article on the LC webpages, I couldn't 
find it until I used google. The fact that I had to find it in a roundabout way 
says something about the problem with the mother site. (Of course, I could have 
missed it. If so, it may say more about my problem with not finding things that 
are right in front of my eyes, as my wife points out to me from time to time….)
