Style

I put a little time into setting up alternate stylesheets.  The "Light|Dark" graphics below also appears at the top of other pages.  You may choose the style you prefer.  If your web-browser supports "Dark mode", this should have chosen the correct mode for you from that preference.  This feature tries to keep your selected choice by storing a JavaScript generated cookie.  if your web browser doesn't accept cookies, or purposely deletes cookies, a choice won't "stick".
