(This is actually about two weeks old and I just realized that it didn't get posted. Oops.)
I've just discovered the photographic collection of Travis Rector. He's made some stunningly beautiful pictures from Kitt Peak and Cerro Tololo and regular readers of Astronomy Picture of the Day will probably recognize most of his images.
I've also just read that the scheduled launch date for Mars Explorer Rover 1 is my birthday :-) Also, somehow I missed the news of the galaxy evolution launch http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/releases/2003/62.cfm.
Something is broken on this page, as of very recently with

I mouse over any body text and all links on the page underline.
That's not a bug, it's an effect he uses. Nothing is underlined until you mouse over it's specified DOM node (or "area" if you like). Further, when you mouse over links they "light up" as well.
It's not a bug, it's a feature ;-)
Actually, maybe it is a bug. You shouldn't get underlines on all the links, just the links in that particular blog posting. If all of the links are getting underlined (even the blogroll?) then I've done something wrong.
Believe it or not, I read my own blog somewhat regularly and while I don't like underlined links when I'm reading, I do like to be able to find the links easily if that's what I'm trying to do.
So as long as I don't put the mouse over the particular blog post I don't have the ugly underlines but if I need to follow a link, as soon as I mouse into the post, all the links get an underline becoming more visible and when I hit the link itself, I get a nice highlight to let me know I'm really on the link.
This is optimization for me and maybe not ideal for some readers. Sorry if it bothers. I'll consider changing it if people really hate it.

Sorry, you're right - it's just that one post. I've seen this before and always assume it was a bug because it seems so horrible. I certainly accept you justification Asa, it must just be a personal preference of mine.
Speaking of blog bugs, I have one that I think may be due to something here. When I come here, then afterwards, my navigation buttons (prev, next, stop, reload) in the orbit 3+1 theme disappear, and reappear sporadically. I'm not sure it's only with this site, but it seems to happen more here, and maybe only here. Still testing to try to characterize it. I'm using mozilla 1.3 on winNT 4.0. Orbit 3+1 theme v1.3 0.0.7.1. I have tried reinstalling both with no luck. Email me if you'd like to see a screen shot since I don't have your email address.
