Yes, I agree - very cool. It's kinda neat to match the list members'
names to their vans - photos of the actual people might be nice too - sort
 of a "Vanagon list members and their vans" thing.

The dark gray letters appear in my browser as well, Per. Nearly impossible
 to read, I agree. If you turn out the lights in the room you're in, it's a
 little better, but not much. :) But in general, to better view hard-to-read
 (i.e. yellow on white) or annoying (i.e. blue on red) text, you can alter
your browser by choosing to use your own fonts and/or colors rather than
those specified in the page. Depending on which browser you use, you may be
able to make these changes for only a specific page, or for all pages. In
Netscape Communicator 4.6, you would do the following: Edit -> Preferences
-> Appearance -> Colors -> "Always use my colors overriding document".

Hope that helps.
