Hello all dialists!
My new website, "Sundial Sculptures by John L. Carmichael Jr.", is finally
completed and ready for your critical inspection. I did not realize how
difficult it would be to do this, which explains why it took so long. I
think, though, that it will constantly ch
Hello all,

I had no trouble with Netscape 7.01, which I used for most of the
exploration. However, with IE 6.0 and N 4.7, I did find problems similar
to those mentioned. I d
