Many articles have on them a direction to "e-mail this article to a friend." I suggest we e-mail ourselves important articles and store them in separate files.
In addition, we can paraphrase articles, keeping downloaded articles as proof if needed.

My thoughts precisely. If we don't keep these source materials (for the big stories) ourselves (unpublished online) for reference, the truth will never be provable in a clinch, or when memories fade. This site has some awfully decent, integral FReepers who are filled with integrity, and upon whom a lot of the work falls to find and post. It seems they will be called upon even more now.

"...we e-mail ourselves important articles ..."

Good idea! However, I noticed that sometimes, the website will only send you a link to their article. I think in those cases it might be better to copy and paste it to our emails, or harddrives..or a floppy disk.
