[edit] html

// inappropriate change of topic sorry, but I had trouble editing the section on "Second and Third Nature" to avoid the box that seems to scroll endlessly to the right. Somebody with better (HTML) editing skills than mine should please fix that; otherwise, thanks for the work, I find it interesting. //rhi —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.5.4.1 (talk) 21:59, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
