Looking at www.adaic.org with Netscape under NT 4.0 (large fonts) is
a disaster.  

What appears is a nice graphical wallpaper-type background, with 
just about zero content. 

Then I notice that there is a column (about 10% of the screen) at the
left that has what looks to be navigation info (like many web sites),
but the text color is a very pale green, so that it is hardly noticed,
and the links (if they are links) are not clickable.  I do have java
and javascript turned on.  

Then I notice that I can scroll down, and when I do I find what I guess
is supposed to be the main part of the page -- the nice graphic about
"Ada Info & Software Engineering".  But this is completely out of the
visible part of the screen when I open the page.

Why such a sick page?
