That photo represents what I've seen in aquaria. Which is why I knew it
would be a good adjunct to my Usenet Improvement Project.

ANNC (first): I'm splitting my GG page (see sig) into four or five
shorter ones and moving it/them to improve-usenet.org, which I just
acquired. I'd like a more cosmetic little site than my
bare-bones-by-intent blinkynet site, albeit it'll still be a quick load
on dialup, as my commitment to be snappy even on a slow connection has
never wavered. Hafta look at some templates or something as a start on
deciding what to do.
