While I don’t particularly like the structure of the FAQ (one page per item is definitely tedious to read through - I wish it came in a PDF or scrollable form) this is a goldmine of succinct and zero frills information. I learned a few things.
http://www.faqs.org/faqs/C-faq/faq/ has an ascii version from July 3, 2004 (again, I wouldn’t know whether that is up to date, but given its age, it may not be)
