There will be no adverts on the official page (final draft) for this
project.

Let me apologize for this. I had originally set up the preliminary
description of this proposal on a "personal" Geocities account. Then I
got official permission from Chris Cason/ povteam, etc., to host this on
one of "his" servers.  So I just translated all of the HTML files right
over.  I had heard so many things about some browsers bombing out/looking
ugly with <BLOCKQUOTE>, and other crazy stories that I just wanted to see
how it looked right away before making all of the final changes.  A
change at the top of my list is to remove the Y/G accourterments, and
even some of the bottom of the page ads that may have gone with my
LinkExchange banner ad service.

Why do I have cig ads on my LinkExchange banner ads?  That's because the
page I am advertising on LE is about the morality and health effects of
smoking in front of kids, and naturally it is classified under "smoking."
So LE ads about smoking will come up with the HTML code associated with
my LE page.  I thought of allowing this to take place as a "sink" of
smoking ads moreso than an exposure of kids to smoking, a new and
plausible interpretation I had never thought of before.....

I hope the "Your 10 Best Images" to be received as a professionally done
project and free from baggage associated with my politics, etc., and to
be ABOUT POVRAY, not about me:  sorry again for this source of
controversy.
