Transitions

After many years of relying upon crude HTML for my homepage, I have been shamed into moving everything over to more modern markup. Of course, because of the structural desires of the the designers of these instruments, it seemed that I also ought to try to use the tools that are out there for taking advantage of the separation of content and design, so here we are.

At this point, what you see is the result of a quick cut-and-paste of the old page into the new structure. I cannot pretend that things will stay like this for very long. Even the CSS is only the best I could come up with on short notice and, while there were good reasons for picking this layout, I cannot say that I will live with it for very long. Of course, that's the point, I guess. If I do this transition right, it should be easy for me when I come up with a more workable layout that I like better. But, we know that there frequently can be a big gap between intent and achievement, so we'll see.

In the interim, if nothing else, it will give me something to distract me when I can't bear dealing with something else. <G>
