404 ... A response you sometimes get,

404's a shorthand way to say, "Too bad,
But the stuff you want is not here to be had."

If you clicked a link to get here from another place somewhere,
Could you back up and send email to the author over there?
Say, "The page you linked to isn't, any more ... 404!"
