This web site requires a web browser. And a computer, or something like it. I'm not going to tell you you need Microsquishies's Internet Exploiter 6.0, or that you need Netscrape Nagrivator 7.1, or Oprah 7.2, though I do think you'd like Firefox. You don't need 1600x1280 pixels on your screen, but you should have at least 640x480, which you probably do, unless your "something like it" device is a PDA or other type of handheld device with a tiny screen, in which case I hope the site still looks good even though I'm not using WAP. I'm also not using Java or JavaScript (for the most part) or Cascading Style Sheets or Flash or Acrobat (well, maybe a little Acrobat for some forms) or the newest whiz-bang lets-make-it-work-in-as-few-browsers-as-possible technologies. Okay, okay, I maybe added some Google Maps which do require some of the newer browsers, but I'm also including alternatives for older browsers. I'm for sure not using ActiveX in any way, shape or form! You don't need a super fast 3.8GHz computer running Netscrape 9.9 on a T1 Internet connection, I suspect the site should be pretty usable on a 33MHz 386 Windows 3.1 computer running Netscrape 3.0 on a dial-up connection... well, at least more usable than a lot of other pages that are out there. You might need a magnifying glass to read this text, however. I designed this web site to work -- and hopefully look good -- on what you have. Please let me know if something doesn't work or doesn't look good! 96.4% (plus or minus 50%) of this web site was hand-crafted with pride using HTML and DOS EDIT. Well, except for the graphics -- I didn't do a single one of them in DOS EDIT, though I was tempted; I used slighly more graphical tools for them.
