Default Had to laugh.

Made me smile when I thought about this posting showing up so close to the one about average age of the forum.

Heeeeeyyyyyyy: I resemble that remark; I'm one of those old fellas. Got the zoom up to 125% on my screen.

But I could of course make the whole page larger like the fella said ctrl++ but then I would wear my mouse out running it back and forth.

Well that is cool! Thank you for pointing that out. Doubtless will help to avoid much squinting at my already fairly large monitor.

I've been using that feature since June of 2009. (FYI-My eyes will be 52yrs old this summer) However, I'm not sure that being part of less than 1 percent is a good thing...

for those of you using Fire Fox there is an add on called "No Squint" It allows you to increase just the text on the page and then remembers it whenever you return to that website. Very handy.

It actually hurts my eyes to use the larger font. I guess I got used to squinting without my glasses. It's so bright, it hurts!!!
