Your link #2 is broken. And why, in 2006, are all your references circa 1999?
First I made the original post in 2001. Also the debate (in the Calvin College/ASA Evolution Listserv) occured in response to several things that happened around that time: e.g. a (very misleading) review of Michael Majerus' book Melanism: Evolution in Action by Jerry Coyne in Nature, and the (mis)use of this by IDer Jonathan Wells to claim that the conventional Peppered Moth story was false, photos were faked, moths had virtually never been found resting naturally on tree trunks, etc.
As to my broken link I don't know what to tell you. I guess google.groups discarded or lost some data when they sucked up the old dejanews.org.
