One Internet Archive Quirk Which May Not Be Relevant

7. Where is the archive loading the pages from if not from an archived snapshot?

Her actual blog was taken down awhile ago. Any links to her server would presumably 404. Moreover, lets assume the archive was loading pages from her actual site -- then it would be loading pages from the lastest version of her site. Which means the first page would have dates from say 2010 or whenever it was last updated, which would be immediately apparent to anyone who was loading a 2006 snapshot.

All of this hand-waving about the details of the Wayback Machine is starting to give me flashbacks of the Great Superscript Hunt when suddenly everyone was trying to concoct ways that a 60's typewriter could produce a document with Microsoft Word default settings.
