R&R Auto Service has an excellent arrangement - you find the best internet deal on a part or tire, bring them the URL and you pay them the internet price plus a reasonable labor fee and you get your auto fixed. Fantastic. Best of both worlds, internet choices, local service. You have to admire a business that has figured out how to excel in a changing world.

I am trying to learn to design better (more readable) web pages. My template is available. I am learning by reading "Creating Killer Web Sites" by David Siegel, who, while very opinionated, writes an excellent treatise on using page layout design principles to make web pages more understandable.
I am also (as I have time) trying to make my web pages more accessible. By more accessible, I mean that I want people with any web browser to be able to access and read my pages. If you are using a non-standard web browser, and have trouble reading my pages, please let me know by sending mail to me at snolan@aol.net. There is a campaign to make more pages accessible, tips can be found at Optimize your Site! and at Consumer Choice in Web Browsers. The World Wide Web Consortium has a lot of info on building web pages. Read AmigaPhil's home pages for more information on accessability.
