 ï>¿Hello.

   Thank you for showing an interest in reading my stories.  I hope you'll
have a good time.

   I've only recently opened this account, so this site is in the early
stages of development at the moment.  I hope you'll be patient with me
while I fathom the mysteries of ftp.

   My preferred format for posting stories is as html files, because I'm
able to format the layout to provide the most pleasant reading environment
with proper typographical quotes, margins and intelligent white space.  I
do my best to make sure that the layout remains pleasant for a variety of
screen sizes and shapes.

   However there are some people who prefer good old ASCII, so I'll be
posting plain text versions too.  (They're better for text readers I
believe.)

   Happy reading,
   Tooluser.
