    1. Nice toon John. Thanks for this-- nice to have everything pulled together once a week.

    2. BTW, on the main page, the toon gets stretched out to several screen's worth of height for me, using Chrome. Not sure what's going on there - it looks fine on this page.

    3. The toon doesn't show in IE9 in either page. In Chrome on the toon on the home page I right-click 'inspect element' and expand the 'Computed Style'. That shows a height of 2487px, where it gets this 'computed style height' from is beyond my ken.

    4. Bern & panzerboy: There is a technical glitch embedded in the toon, but I do not know how to fix it. Perhaps one of my tech savy colleagues will be able to do so. I use Internet Explorer and I do not see a toon on either the home page or on this version.

      Moderator Response: [DB] It's there in Firefox 7 but not in IE 8.
