Gee nathan, you do have a point here. Stupid pictures and stuff need to be 
eliminated. Lets not clog up the WWW here. In fact, why dont we all revert 
back to VT52 terminals and 1200 baud modems. 

In addition, lets get rids of gui's. After all, typing "ctrl-x 4,9312 ctrl-y" 
is more effective than clicking on the "Bold" button. And since I can type the 
sequence in approximately 1.021 seconds, and click the button in 1.023 
seconds, that means that I am saving .002 seconds every time I need to change 
some text to bold in my favorite word processor. 

Its refreshing to know that you still support Lynx on your pages. Maybe 
someone who doesn't have a newer computer, or any recent knowledge of 
computers can understand your archaic view of technology too...

I would recommend that you not discriminate against those that still 
communicate via morse code, or a teletype. make sure that your web page 
supports them too...
