To Jim,
I am not sure about the format yet but I will try for something easy on the eyes. As Anubis said, you can certainly change it easily enough. How you would do it would be to select the text (select all) and copy it. Go into Word (or somehting similar) and paste it. Now it will be the color it was online. So select all again and change the text color in your word program to default and you now have it in black. Hope that helped.
To Coil,
Yes, I know what you mean. I felt like a bit of a refugee with nowhere to call home and no way to share news. Thankfully that is behind us now. Glad to be back.
