Hello Greg - 

CA>> My complaint is that I really don't _want_ all that extra

Two different websites. 

The FAF (Family and Friends) website was not originally
'public' and all family members and their friends use newer
hardware and software. The children enjoy playing with the
'slinky' animation that is used on that page. The website was
intended as 'entertainment' not as informational or a reference
of any sort. The link from my tech website is 'entertainment'. 

There are other mouse-cursor animations where a giant bee
chases normal sized bees around the screen and another where
the 'big bad wolf' chases on of the three little pigs around
the screen. 

At the tech website that has _always_ been public there is no
javascripting of any kind. Not even a 'sniffer'. All of the
'fancy stuff' is server-side CGI that imposes no speed penalty
on the user nor requests any CPU cycles from the user's
machine. Even text-only browsers get the same pages and have no
problems using the tech website. 

At least you bothered to look.  Both websites serve a purpose,
just different purposes. ;-)
