RE: AS/400 FAQ

[Buck Calabro <buck.calabro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Agree 100% that the Geocities site is Just For Now.

I originally thought that I'd use style sheets only to make all the pages
uniform without having to tinker much with each page.  All I have in them is
some stuff to indent the major headings and the background/text colours.
Nothing fancy at all.  I can easily put the stuff in the body declaration
instead.
