thanks, but mirror site of my Tuning Dictionary is outdated

During a web search, I stumbled onto the following:
http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/orgue/Define.htm

This is an unauthorized mirror site containing the original
(1998) version of my Tuning Dictionary, when the whole work
was on one big webpage.

While I'm flattered that someone sees a great enough value in
my work to make sure that it is preserved somewhere else in
the world besides my own server, and anonymously (which, in
my view, means humbly and appreciatively) uploaded it intact
and even added an additional link to my homepage near the top
for the reader's convenience, this is an old version and I am
compelled to say a little more than 'thanks'. (but 'thanks'
nonetheless...)

The Dictionary has since been expanded vigorously several times,
and restructured so that each definition is a separate page.
This format results in much faster loading, and also allows me
the space to expand each definition as I please; I evision some
of them to be quite long indeed at some future time, most likely
by adding to the definitions links which point to longer essays
on various aspects of the subject. My objective is to eventually
seamlessly integrate all my webpages with the Dictionary entries.

In addition, during my recent period of moving and settling I've
accumulated quite a backlog of corrections, mainly thanks to
Paul Erlich, and so much of the Dictionary is currently in
another process of revision, with entries being uploaded a
just a few at a time.

I must also admit guilt myself of leaving this old version on
my own site alongside the newer one. At some point I'll get
around to changing that page so that it points to the correct
address; which, BTW, is

www.ixpres.com/interval/dict/

This is the only address which should be considered correct,
unless and until a mirror site is created which matches exactly
the one I maintain. Offers to do that are welcome if anyone's
interested. Perhaps the person who created the above-quoted
site would like to update it and gain my approval.
