This is true, and I have been aware of its presence and have used it since available. However, as a reading medium, most computer screens would cause me migraine (coincidentally, "migraine" was part of the content of another post that I changed and rewrote to become my post above ). So, it has been wonderful as a reference, but not as a practical reading form for me until eink ereaders became available, at least, not without printing stuff off, which has its own practical considerations.

Anyway, outstanding good analysis Marc, and I do think we 3 are talking about the same thing.

Best regards,
All of my favourite conversations are those where the participants converge in such a manner.

Cheers,
Marc
