Whilst no answer to my initial post may well be perceived (by me) as a swift
reply, I will persist
in asking subtle, yet salient, questions in this forum for as long as the D
community does not
want me to be a member.

Yes, I know there are lots of horrors, but which kind of horror are you
referring to?

I still use that mode in my terminals, though... somehow black-on-white never
suited me in 
that one case.  Even less so than green-on-black (always felt so "hollywood",
shiver).

Well, whatever that means. But, call me stupid, but white backgrounds are 
hard on they eyes! So, all web-designers are "all wet". All 
marketing/poll/whatevers are all too. I never see anyone change back to 
white backgrounds once I change them to grey. Potato chip testers are as 
stupid as the idiot that said that white backgrounds on web pages are "the 
thing". </free consulting>

Yea, I mean, being the best page in the universe, you'd think that everyone 
would want to follow his lead, but nooo!
