David, you can implement much of what you're asking for in your browser's preference or options menu. Just change the fixed font to a larger size, and make the background always default to the color you choose, say a light gray, or even darker if you prefer. For that matter, you can change the font to be white on a dark grey or black background if you like.

>>I want the pages to look like they did in the beginning. Grey background ... On that point, it used to be the default browser color. Sometimes dark gray, sometimes white, whatever. At least you could set it. I don't know what it is now (set or mandated), I haven't looked at the source. Of course you can always do what Jon Tara did: peek at the source to rewrite as you want (kudos to Jon, I'm impressed like the rest of us). That's one of the nice things about HTML. You can't change the server feeds, though, which leaves you high and dry over time.
