I am one of those few people that also hopes to be sober enough to enjoy such things. I will have a drink or two, but no more.

Are we really numbered among "the few" ? Perhaps the rest are just hiding somewhere.

Sorry, I'm going to be plastered. I've got to go to a fancy dress party, and I don't do fancy dress.

Well, I've been waiting for 3-4 months now on this article. Many of my others were either approved or rejected recently, but the Sub-Eds haven't gotten around to this one yet. I feel this is my best article, and I am hoping you can give me some last minute advice before it goes to review. Can you please look over the article and tell me what you think?

I'd like to say it's a good article, but I can't read it without my eyes bugging out of my head.
Do ya think you could change the text color? It's coming through over here as ultra-light blue, close enough to white to seriously dialate my pupils.
Judging from the responses you're a talented guy, but please...stick to black text.
It could, of course, be my computer. If no one else has had this problem, let me know.

Yes! I too could hardly make it out at all. It would probably be a wise move to revert to black, if a sub has to struggle to read it, they may well put it to the bottom of their pile so to speak.

I don't know about your machine, but on mine, -all- the h2g2 editors are black text on a white background...

Great article, if you're still around, you might want to link to my entry on ambigrams at http://www.h2g2.com/A454871 (currently being edited). I get blue text on white background too.
