Web site development

[Altona Duston]

Okay,

Chief HTML-nazi here.  I "stole" Chris's page and made
it HTML-4 compliant ran it through the validators
and added css and validated that.  It is at
http://www.sound.net/~hald/kclug/cmidkiff.html

Also, the Mailing list at the bottom works :)

I cannot create, but I can edit.  Will try to do the
other one tommorrow.
