      me likey!

      The quotes tend to flash by a little fast, even when I'm using my 56k connection at home. If an optional timed delay could be put in then that would make things even better.
      If I'm posting here then Counterglow must be down.

        Yes, Gramphos has the best idea. That way at the beginning we can set it for a couple of seconds, then once we get tired of it we can change it back to 0.

                      \earth: file system is full

                      joke for people who know a little bit about unix
                      imagine if it would say "disk drive earth is full" or something

                          Firstly, it's great!

                          Second, I suspected you're using the Fortune from Unix... some nice quotes in that database, I remember delving right in it.

                            I remember this one, it was on the thanks reply page. But IIRC it was dead instead of demise, unfortunatly I don't know any place were I could look it up.

                            There was also one on the thanks for editing page but I can't remember that one, I did not saw it as often as the first one you mentioned.

                            And now to the next quote but first press submit reply...

                              What does the pause button do? Wouldn't the screen stay there until the user presses the forward button?

                              P.S. That's an ugly setup

                                Nope it times out and forwards on its own unless you press the 'pause' button...
