You can set skins on Mozilla to look like anything you like. There's
a traditional skin option as well as the default, plus there's a whole

       Ernst Martin comments in 1949, "A certain degree of noise in 
       writing is required for confidence. Without such noise, the 
       writer would not know whether the type was actually printing 
       or not, so he would lose control."    (05)
