#2 That site is for young eyes only.
Red on black, I can hardly read it and I find it
disturbing to look at.
Text is med grey on black. Impossible to read.
Who comes up with this shit ?

#3 Ty resetting your colour thingies, wxjames, and perhaps click on the View drop-down menu to increase the text size. I see the text as almost navy blue on white, with the headlines a reddish brown, and the comment thread the same blue against pale yellow. What colour highlight do Steve White's comments appear to you as? ;-)

#4 Sorry -- you meant the click-through site? I saw that as black text on a white background, with blue bits. Does that help?

#5 Just as likely to be Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever.

#7 I've no idea, wxjames. That's just what everyone says when someone's screen shows Steve White as pink instead of salmon. I imagine, though, it's something one finds messing about with the control panel.

#8 Only on Rantburg can you say White is Pink and be correct.

#10 The default for all comments, no matter who posts them, is yellow.

Each moderator has a unique color which s/he can use on comments either in the articles or in the discussion thread. However, that color is only applied if the mod chooses to. All comments on this thread are yellow because none of them was posted by a moderator using their mod color.

For instance, this comment should be yellow overall and

this comment should show up in my mod color of light green.

#13 Tamiflu given to 2,000 in Indo. Guess we'll find out if the 'Tamiflu blanket' approach works.

#15 It looks to be seafoam to me. Did I say seafoam? I didn't say seafoam, nope.

#16 Looks seafoam on my home monitor too. ;-)

Looks like, say, the color of the shirt for Army class A/B uniforms on my work monitor tho.
