I was just browsing the texhax archives. There was a thread about a
publication named Radical Philosophy.

There's a disclosure on the page on the article that "The following text
has been automatically reproduced by an Optical Character Recognition
(OCR) algorithm. It may not have been checked over by human eyes. For
matters of precision please consult the original pdf."

The article I'm referring to is at https://www.radicalphilosophy.com/article/a-monument-to-the-unknown-worker

But even the source shows a

<a href="#ref- -b" id="ref- -a" class="reflink body">[ ]</a>

which throws off the footnotes. And don't we like seeing footnotes on
all TeX produced materials? Eh? hehe.

Anyhow. Interesting article. Interesting. I enjoyed reading most of it.

Here's the git diff on the file

Thanks a lot.
