I look at the same page on another system running Galeon2, and the same text is displayed as junk. Looks a bit like someone took a pen and scratched out the section. See http://www.endofworlds.com/ and look at the fifth paragraph AFTER the bulleted list of items. It starts "All we need to do is pay attention". The damaged section starts right after "our lifetimes" and again after "trillion dollars'". The following paragraph is almost totally unreadable. I am seeing this on at least three systems, all running 4.7 or 4.8-Prerelease. One is running a Gnome1 desktop and the other Gnome 2.2. One is running Galeon and the other Galeon2. The system running Galeon2 and the 2.2 desktop has the bitstream-vera fonts installed. I think it looks to be a font issue, but I am not at all sure what it might be. But, if I am doing something wrong, I'm doing it several places. R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.
