TIME Even Questions Modern Islam

Maybe they are members of the V.R.W.C. too? (I didn't get that memo)

Published on September 8, 2004 By greywar In Current Events

Link and discuss (for Pseudo) or just read and don't discuss. Whichever you like. Today was too long for me to go in-depth on anything.

Here is a TIME article restating many of the slaient points I have made in a recent series of articles. They softball a lot of it but hey... You have to be a subscriber to get the whole text.

Hey GW...could just be me, but there's something funky with your formatting. Especially the visited links colors...vlink. Do you have the power to modify that? It seems to be only on your blog that it's painful. Also, there's something odd about the way your letters cut off halfway.

Just some suggestions. You can delete this comment if y'wanna.

PS Going to visit oleteach this weekend.

greywar,
I agree with xtine's critique of your format. I have noticed it off and on. Move is going nicely. xtine is coming to pick up memorabilia for K. Besides that I have a lot of great stuff for a yard sale.

Between busy days of moving, I have been reading all your blogs, many of the links and getting a greater understanding of the problems of the Middle East. Many, many years ago while I was attending college in Great Falls, Montana, I had a terrific history professor who constantly predicted that "One day the Middle East will be the hotbed of terrorism threatening the rest of the world."

The hard part about fixing it is that it looks fine on my computer.

hmmm that is set locally in the readers browser, not sure I can do anything about it with the level on control I have over the way the page is displayed. I can try a few different fonts though

vlink is usually set in the the html of the actual page.

(Too funny, I tried typing in the html for vlink, but ju won't show it. Probably something to do with the pure html form. Oh well, I tried)

Vlink specifies the color of visited links in the document, the value ?????? is also given in Hexadecimal (base 16).

Usually determined by author of said page. That's why I think it's on your end. Your red pane on the right is fine as long as the letters are white. But once I visit a link, the letters turn a pinkish color. Extremely hard to read against red.

Do you access to the code of the page? Did you somehow accidently modify it?

meh. I've had this happen to varying degrees on various JU pages. It seems fairly random, and sometimes fixes it self by going to a different page and coming back.
I really don't think this is grey's fault.

It's been pretty consistent for GW's page for me, either at home on my measly dial-up or at work with the super-dsl. Just thought he'd like to know.

eh, whatever. If he don't care, I don't either.

Yeah, but it's fun to blame him. And it seems to happen on his page more often than any other blog...

On a completely off topic note -

HEY, greywar, check out the new blogs link... there's one there you will likely want to add to your roll...
