Post Hot Tip: How to enlarge the type for better readability
Just noticed this little icon if you have a Microsoft/Windows operating system and are running Vista as your O/S that makes the typeface on any webpage (including here) larger and more legible:

There's a tiny "magnifying glass with a + sign in it" and "100%" shown in the lower right corner of your screen. Click that and you can enlarge the type to 125% or 150%, which is very cool. (Keep clicking to cycle back to 100%...) Or click the little arrowhead, for more options. The previous XP system has a type size deely-bopper in the upper right corner, I think....

Makes reading stuff a lot easier..... :huh

Cheers,
Selene

A FYI for Mozilla Firefox users as well. Hold down Ctrl key and cycle mouse wheel for magnification control. Zounds! It's a great and wondrous magic for we aging specimens. :lol
