Welcome to "YourNextLink" a weekly E-Zine of weblinks, tips and other strange blurbs from Apollo and Mynx.

I think we have found a good variety of links for you to peruse this week. Thanks to our link counter in full swing, we are discovering that graphics sites tend to be more popular, so be sure to check out our suggested site this week.

War of the Worlds

Starting a widespread panic in 1938, War of the Worlds has since become a cult classic.

Everything you would like to know can be found here, with links to other sites.

Virus Information
If you are sick of getting the SNOWWHITE virus sent to you, this page will help. Don't be fooled by the address for this site. It explains to you how to track down where the virus came from with step-by-step instructions on how to read the email header to find the culprit. There is more helpful information one the home page.
World News

Who said the Aussies were dumb? Here you will find out just how resourceful we are.
This intriguing news article details how an Australian came to own the rights to the wheel. (And for all of our subscribers, the Aussie did the start of this write-up. From stateside, I'm not sure just what this article says about Aussies...sounds like America to me.)

Hobbies
Are you interested in making your own Role Playing Game? Four years of work went into developing this toolkit. It is a free download that you can use to create your own RPG game. If you get stumped, there is even a discussion group available to help.
Humor
Here is another one of those "break the stress of finals week" experiment sites. We covered squirrel fishing in an earlier issue, now we bring you T.W.I.N.K.I.E.S. Some students from Rice University did a series of experiments on Twinkies and here you can find their complete results.
Trivia
This is an interesting site of weird but true facts. There are links to more detailed information as well as pictures on this site. If you are after some information on a range of topics then this could be the site for you. Some of it is very thought-provoking.
General Interest

Ever hear the expression "Don't take any wooden nickels"? Have you ever heard of wooden money? This site will give you the history of how it started in 1933. You will find pictures of wooden coins and some of the mistakes made on some of the coins
