maybe this is the right point to say a BIG THANKYOU to TD for all his work,
single-handedly taking over from Klaus & Fote.
LP's contributions don't affect my use of Lynx much (if at all),

BTW echoing Henry, it might be an idea to move the Y2000 paragraph up
nearer the top of the README file, in view of its current importance.
