#1 If I recall correctly, Anna Held is the lady who had two ribs surgically removed to allow her to cinch her waist to 20 inches. Very hazardous in the days before antibiotics and the danger of rip-roaring peritonitis from surgery.

#4 I''m checking to see if the comments -- and the buttons -- are working under Safari. Presumably, if they work under Safari they''re gonna work under Mozilla.

#5 Safari isn't a variant of Mozilla. It's made using the renderer from the KDE web browser/file manager Konqueror.

I think Mozilla and Firefox (called, for bizarre copyright reasons, "Iceweasel" on Debian) share rendering engines, though. Not sure.

#6 So far things are looking pretty good.


But I could be wrong.



I''ve often been wrong.



I hate it when that happens.

#7 Yeah, I tried Safari. Had the hypertext encapsulated with I and /I disappear from the posting. Back now to Firefox for any posting.

#8 I didn''t know Safari was descended from Konqueror.

I use Mozilla and "Iceweasel" on my Linux setups, though.

I still do most of my design work on IE. I actually find it more predictable than the others, and Mozilla least so. But I use Safari, Opera, and Konqueror as well.
