Note:These pages make extensive use of the latest XHTML and CSS Standards. They ought to look great in any standards-compliant modern browser. Unfortunately, they will probably look horrible in older browsers, like Netscape 4.x and IE 4.x. Moreover, many posts use MathML, which is, currently only supported in Mozilla. My best suggestion (and you will thank me when surfing an ever-increasing number of sites on the web which have been crafted to use the new standards) is to upgrade to the latest version of your browser. If that's not possible, consider moving to the Standards-compliant and open-source Mozilla browser.

Ultra-Geek

Speaking of rather exclusive clubs, the dozen or so people who use my utarticle.cls LaTeX class-file may be interested in knowing that there’s a new version out. At Aaron Bergman’s instigation, I’ve “fixed” the \email{} macro. Now, loading the hyperref macro package,

\usepackage[]{hyperref}

converts \email{r.j.drofnats@st.anford.edu} into a clickable mailto hyperlink in the resulting PDF (or DVI) file. It’s a small thing, an arguably really geeky thing, but it makes me happy.

A dozen or so people? I was afraid I was the only one!

P.S. Greetings from the KITP!
