Oh sure, ruin my fun :-)

Actually, try Edit -> Preferences -> Appearance and set the font sizes to 14
and 12 points, respectively.  That ought to help.

Hopefully it is not as bad as all the FrontPage sites you see, because I
used relative font sizes instead of absolute ones (this is what you're
supposed to do anyway).  So basically, it's telling the browser "Go one step
smaller" instead of tell it "go to this one particularly tiny font".

Hehe :-)

The Makefile that generates all the ACLUG pages is now looking particularly
scary.  Those of you that have used Makefiles may want to examine it at
http://www.aclug.org/Makefile if you're curious about what happens when
people try to make Makefiles do more than they're supposed to :-)
