Of course, that's why GTD Wolf uses a blue-green on black :p

I think the debate is over...LoD all the way! :D
Wash: This landing's gonna get pretty interesting.
Mal: Define "interesting".
Wash: *shrug* "Oh God, oh God, we're all gonna die"?
Mal: This is the captain. We have a little problem with our entry sequence, so we may experience some slight turbulence and then... explode.

But... I mean Microsoft uses DoL so I mean... it has to be good! :p
Science alone of all the subjects contains within itself the lesson of the danger of belief in the infallibility of the greatest teachers in the preceding generation . . .Learn from science that you must doubt the experts. As a matter of fact, I can also define science another way: Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts. - Richard Feynman

It was scientifically proved that the best color scheme for text in self-luminescent surfaces, such as computer monitors, is amber text on black background. That's why we had those god-awful amber screens back on the XT days. But it's still the most comfortable to read...

LOD is nice as long as it's not exactly LOB or WOD, not to mention WOB. On the other hand, if the content is good enough, it could be even LOL.

Styxx, your plan worked right from the start. Made me remember one of my old computers... I'm hooked now. Look back on the first page - I even edited my post there to combine the power of amber. We will take over the world yet...
