Hi, David... actually, not for me.  I get a headache looking at stark bold
black on glowing hot white.  But that is the subjective response of a
migraineuse. ;)  The colored scheme is actually easier on me. What might
make it even easier is for you to diminish the size of your letters a bit,
and put black on cream.  The left hand bar is just fine.  You (or I) should
get this post  tomorrow. ;D
