Hey, Charles Dickens wrote novels in installments for the weekly newspaper; installment writing is nothing to look down on.


In the suspended time when I have not been working on this, the art of “blogging” has arisen and taken the country by storm.

You will encounter places where you need ADOBE FRAME READER
You may already know that a very large number of State (California) and Federal on-line documents
are formatted in Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF),
as are a large number of other on-line documents.
You may download a FREE copy from http://www.Adobe.com/Acrobat/

As of now I hesitate to make any remarks; I have been reading “Designing with Web Standards”, by jeffrey zeldman, published by New Riders and the myriad of different parameters, different versions of browsers, etc., are quite staggering. It's a wonder that anyone can see in their browser, the same thing or approximately the same thing that the designer intended.
I have been encountering anomalous results because they made the browser software so "smart". To get everyone up to speed: After a file ⁄ page is downloaded into your computer from your Internet Provider servers, then any subsequent references to this page MAY be taken as the copy you have in your computer, NOT the original or revised copy on the Internet Provider servers. This is done to speed things up and not take communication line time by replacing your computer files with the same material. HOWEVER in the case of my pages here, this is BAD NEWS. My material is changing often, including the formatting style sheets, possibly by the time you visit the site again, and you MUST keep cleared out of your computer the prior copies from previous visits to get the newest ones I have.
For Microsoft Internet Explorer v6, click on Tools > Internet options > tab General, and under Temporary Internet Files, click on Delete Files click Settings, "Check for Newer Versions of Stored Pages": select "Every time you start Internet Explorer"
then click OK and OK again.
Remember that on this stuff, I am a little ahead of some of my visitors, and a little behind some others. I hope this is correct and sufficient.
