Unexplored Internet

With Felix's help (and large screenshots he sent me) I've made a few small changes to support other browsers.

Except IE.

Now I'm sure this looks bloody awful on Netscape 4.xx but so does everything. On the other hand, I don't know why the hell several things break in Microsoft's controversial lawsuit-inducing WWW browser, and I'm tempted not to care; use something free instead, people.

I converted the GIFs to PNGs too. But... have you noticed how few sites have background images these days?

Snow

As every other site in the UK will tell you right now, it snowed today. I looked out the window, and saw that someone had written "I LOVE COCK" in it on the front of a car parked in the street. It was hilarious! I wish I could have taken a picture of this fine example of good, honest, down-to-earth English humour, but, you know, no camera.

Besides, a car would surely prefer the cold, ribbed metal nozzle of a petrol pump.

Mathematicians in shock!

Mathematicians and allied trades were left reeling today at the discovery of multiplicative inverses in the set of integers! As a well-known authority spoke of "the field of integers", the rest of us mortals were forced to conclude that there must be an integer k such that 2k = 1 after all, only that we're all too dumb, or too busy scrawling hasty messages in overnight snowfall, to be able to work out just which integer it is.

In other news, I am a horrible pedant and do not deserve the good things in life.
