We can get people to the Moon in five years,
not the fifteen GWB proposes.
Give NASA a real challenge

from IE or any inferior browser, you can save these images to your
hard drive for background purposes. Still, incredibly good shots,
worthy of my skill. Just wish I'd been there to take them :-(

Netscape works a treat! No issues with right click blocks.... :-)

right-click blocking is b0rken anyway.

Right-click-and-hold, press space bar, release mouse button.

Although of course none of this changes whether an image is copyrighted
or not or whether what you plan to do with it is 'fair use'.

Yet another reason to use a Mac: right-clicking and "Download Image As .

Huh? You have a Mac mouse that right clicks? Mine has no right or left.
I do a sustained click to get Save As.

Can't make aquariums out of Wintel machines.
Viral infections would kill the fish in no time.

OSX works fine with most two-button mice. At work I have a Logitech USB
optical scroll wheel mouse that I plug into my iBook and "it just works"
(TM). Apple may still pretend that a single-button mouse is superior but
even they know better if they put the hooks for it into the OS. :-)

....Right before I read this, I was reading an old DC comic with one of
Henry Boltinoff's _Cap's Hobby Hints_ as a page filler. Ironically,
this one dealt with the kid who broke his model of a sailing frigate,
and was really ****ed that his model was ruined. His father showed him
how to salvage it by breaking off more pieces, then dropping it in the
fish tank where it would look cool like a sunken ship.

....However, what Boltinoff failed to follow-up on in a later _Cap's_
half-pager was the fact that, since most kids in the 60's used the
original Testor's Red Tube - the glue that made you so high that you
didn't give a **** that your model was thrown together in 30 minutes
or less and looked like it was and/or your fingertips were coated and
could no longer leave fingerprints - throwing a kit assembled with
said adhesive would outgas and partially dissolve in the tank water,
and kill your fish within a month or two after submerging.
