		<description>Oh yeah, I remember CompuServe. And Prodigy.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;My introduction to computers was in the early &#039;80s with a Texas Instruments system. No hard drive; just an expansion system for floppy disks, cartridges, and such.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Today&#039;s youth are missing out on LOGO.</description>

		<description>The first n years of my internet use were spent on CompuServe.  For those who weren&#039;t around, it was sort of like Yahoo Groups.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The really great thing about it was that it was the only thing like it.  As a result, *everyone* was there.  If you joined the forum on any subject, you were communicating with everyone in the English-speaking world with an interest in that subject.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;BTW, even before CompuServe, almost 20 years ago I ran a major project, involving vendors and installations all over the country, with MCI Mail, which was a precursor to the email we have now.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Just to make the point in my original comment above, in the first sentence of this comment, I originally put angle brackets around the &quot;n&quot;.  That is a common notation for a variable.  But, it also looks like HTML.  I confused the processor.  It made me remove the angle brackets.</description>

		<description>Thanks Dick. Constructive criticism, positive or negative, is all I ask.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I do hear you on simpler days. I remember browsing webpages not just on Netscape 1.0 but also on &lt;a HREF=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lynx_(web_browser)&quot; REL=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Lynx&lt;/a&gt;, a text-based browser. And Gopher and Archie and Veronica and all the other VAX tools.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t like it.  Of course, I still long for the day when the internet was all text.  All those graphics, pictures, etc. get in my way.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Text is best when displayed in narrow columns of dark letters on a light background;  e.g., like a newspaper.  Anything less makes it harder to read.  There is a great deal of research related to textbooks that confirms this.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;BTW, I was thinking of saying something diplomatic, but then thought better of it.  :-)</description>

		<description>Rudy, thanks for the 2 cents. In my unemployment, every little bit counts!&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Time will tell whether I keep the &quot;read more&quot; aspect or go for a fuller look aka a newspaper.</description>

		<description>Hey Ari,&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Nice layout and soothing colors.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;But, I&#039;m not a big fan of &quot;Read More&quot;. IMHO it prevents me reading ahead.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Just my 2 cents.</description>

		<description>Thanks Tom. I suppose I should have mentioned, if not clear, that Amanda didn&#039;t do the work for me; she provided the template (one of 101 such templates) and through trial and error with some test blogs I created, I learned how to make the changes.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Glad you like. Enjoy the hike!</description>
