These pages are infinitely less fancy and formatted than other blogs (I hate that word so much), and there's a simple reason:
Simply put, most of the WWW is a stinking cesspit of poor design, bad color schemes, ads, etc. It's a poor medium that's been taken way past sane limits. However, it seems the best way to actually share information these days is through web pages; frankly, I'd rather have you telnet to this machine and present you with simple menus to select your desired articles. In fact, that would be pretty cool and I should get working on that. The problem is that people are too dumb and lazy to actually bother with anything that involves stepping outside of Firefox (and telnet is a scary text-only interface!), so the 2 people who sometimes look at this site now (I'm stretching it) would stop altogether.
I hope everyone dies from seizures induced by flashing banner ads; I hate you all.
