I looked up the "First Virtual InfoHaus", which was the server for the first 
online shopping mall ever, which I wrote and ran back in 1994. The most 
prominent link is to ... a commercial mortgage lender.

Yes! Give me a mortgage collateralized by an online shopping mall that was 
shut down >10 years ago! That's great! I'll take it!

(And yes, it's really the same server, because they also have links to 
sub-pages listing things by date, by price, by seller, etc)

That site was obnoxious. But what? They're trying to sell it?

As far as I can tell, they're trying to get me to refinance the mortgage on 
my online shopping mall.
