| ".9em" means "I think the user is stupid and don't know what font size
| he wants to use, so I shrink it to 90% of whatever he/she thinks is the
| best size".
... or maybe, "The person who hacked up the style sheet (me) was too
stupid to just change the default font size in his browser." ;-)

| Immediate comments:
|
| 1. What does the "ANDSDS" mean (and is the S placed in the link list)?
please see reply to Jossip.
| 2. I like my font size, that's why I set it. The base font size should
| *always* be 1em.
fixed.
| 3. The links on the right are unreadable because of the font size being
| diminished.
fixed?
| 4. Why does the link bar take up half the page width?
that I can't understand - can you screenshot it? it is set to
min-width: 140px;
What browser are you viewing it with? As I said to start with, this
is (for now) only known to work in mozilla >m18.
| 5. The colour scheme is nice - except for the red.
ok. i nixed the red links.
cheers.
