It is not my job or desire to tell you how to run your
world, your life or your computer; BUT....to get the best out of this site here
is what I suggest.
- First, hit your F11 button. You will go to 'FULL
screen' effect and be able to see more. Hit it again and you return to
'normal screen'. If it does no good it can do no harm. It works with most browsers.
- This site was written to appear best in Internet
Explorer Version 6. Anything from Version 3 onwards should be OK. Netscape Navigator
and Opera will do OK but some of the effects will be missing and some
annoying little traits will appear.
- If you are using ANY browser under Version 5 you
really owe it to yourself to UPGRADE. It's free. When you upgrade to Version
6 of Internet Explorer you automatically get Version 6 of Outlook Express.
Both are improvements on earlier versions.
- I suggest 800 x 600 High Colour as the best option
for viewing this site (and others). You can swap from one to the other of the
options with a couple of clicks. No change needs to be permanent.
- Most of the photos on this site have been set
as 'thumbnails' and the full versions are all super
compressed jpeg files to speed loading
with minimal loss of clarity.
If it's slow it MIGHT be the photo but then again it might be that the web
is busy or your modem may be under the 28.8 rating recommended as minimum. Be patient,
all will arrive. But also be aware that this site is deliberately crammed
with photos. If you want text only, order the free book. See below.
- For those with real interest an electronic copy of
the book "Spirit of the Forty-Second" is available , free, to any
one who can accept it as a 167kb email attachment (as a .zip file). It is in MS
Word 97 format. If you know
what I mean you know what I mean. If not, . . . contact me.
- This site was written using Microsoft FrontPage
2000, Paint Shop Pro 5, Picture It Express and LuraWave Smart Compress
3.
- This site
is hosted by YAHOO! Geocities Australia New Zealand as a free service which
means that we sometimes exceed our download limit in busy times and get
switched off for an hour. If that happens, bookmark the site and come back.
The 42nd is worth it. I am investigating alternatives which will avoid this
problem.
- Last, but not least, thank the Good Lord you aren't
in this picture...
Imagine what living this way
was like; and then imagine what happened when it rained.
