I haven't tried lately, and it's possible I'm confusing S&T with SA &
AAAS's Science magazine site.  The other thing is that I can't just
click on a link, this is a DOS/DV offline reader.  So links are useless
to me.  Even if I ran it in a Window instead, it isn't a Netscape 4.05
plugin, so they still wouldn't work.

One of the lessons I've taken from the MSIE/Outlook virus problems is
that security is enhanced if one doesn't make seamless interfaces.  I
continue to keep this DOS/W31 system running for this purpose, and also
to run my Juno v1.39 email client.  It does a strict packet download-
upload operation.  It doesn't do HTML, MIME, or attachments.  There's
no way someone can even send me an HTML message with a pixel bug that
reveals that the message was even delivered.  So I'm not likely to
change the setup I use.

... Why is it "a pair of pants" when it's all one piece?
