Albert and others,

As I read this, you're implying that web citations would necessarily
refer to mediocre materials.  Do you seriously believe that all web
content is bad, and that no reputable style manual would thus make it
easy for an author to refer to it?  Isn't it the duty of a style
manual to make provisions for all types of things that might be cited?

If my inference is incorrect, I'd be interested in learning what you
DO mean by the comment quoted below.
