Strunk on the web is old and Whiteless

I'm well aware of Strunk and White.
You can find an on-line link to it on my Linguistics and Language
web page:  http://home1.gte.net/rwojcik/linguistics.html.

   ** Actually, like any copy of _The Elements of Style_ that you find
      legally posted on the web, this is the one written solely by
      Strunk.  As the link notes, it's from 1918.  White was a student
      of Strunk's, and when White produced his first edition Strunk was
      no longer alive to approve or demur.

      What you buy at a bookstore today will be Strunk & White, what
      you'll find on the web will be straight old-fashioned Strunk.
