Hi Bill, I got the moving traffic -- I just thought there might be a visual illusion. Incidentally, I think your antitraffic wave experiments are great. For years I've driven with a large gap between me and the car in front. It makes a lot less wear on the nerves. If someone wants to cut in, that's fine with me. Speaking of browsers, I was viewing the stop-go with Opera masquerading as MSIE6. Sites created with MS Front Page or MS Publisher have a way of locking out non-MS browsers. My favorite browser is Netscape 3 (each one since 3 has gotten worse). I would very much like the Netscape 3 source code for Linux. Netscape tells me they have LOST the source code; only the 386 binaries are available. Jack Smith
