i'm planning to re-write my page soon ANYWAY, so i'll be making it a
bit more compatible with the text-only browsers.  (it did okay as it
is NOW, but it's been screaming for a change for some time...  <g>)

what would be NICE would be if SIS identifies itself the same way that
Netscape and IE do-- so that the page could, if written to do so, use
.GIF and .JPG for Netscape and IE OR use GS-Specific graphics if that
visitor happens to be using that version of SIS....  <g>

does SIS do that NOW?  if so, please fill me in-- i'll use the info
for my page when i rewrite it...  :)
