You're on the right track with the condensations ("the short of it"), but what's the best way to find particular words/topics from the main page? Start with the most unusual word - you'll still find a lot of references, but go to the second page of them. The answer should stand out.

Here's a hint, re-read what you wrote at the beginning, especially the CONDENSED bit, what feature does Rink Works say is condensed? It's quite easy if you think about it. remember CONDENSED, what is CONDENSED
