   Well last week I started from the BBS I call from (he has I-Net 
access for his users).  I had to tag an icon/applet to get to another 
site that he had listed.
   From there I had to click a pic. to read a file.  Then had to click 
a graphic-type bar to get to a sub area.
   I tried to go to all text (through my software) and saw mostly HTML 
type code.  That made everything confusing.
   However, when I was at a site sponsored by my Sec. of State, I had 
the option of using either text or graphics (it worked fine in text 
mode and the option was built in to the site).  So I'll assume they 
had a "proper" web site running.
