I cannae see anything captain. It's giving me access errors. Perhaps if you made the link a .html and then linked to the PDF?? Erse? Surely you mean Arse! Speaking of which, bummer about last night's result. Time to concentrate on the Premiership.

Get you Acrobat Reader. It's free.
Not only do I have Acrobat Reader I also have Acrobat Writer. I create PDFs for web pages as part of my job.
No Faldage. The problem is not reading the PDF but reading Max's page. I've tried reading his main page aswell as the URL he included but that is giving me error messages aswell. Every other web page I try to access is working fine. I'll leave it until something gets rectified.

Me too. Not an April first foolery? I was irritated to find whole page in Scientific Amercan a kind of sad joke: "50,ooo,ooo years Ago Huge shoes for sale - "Standing at the podium;, Lionel B. Ambulocetus, the President of the International League of Whales..................."

at work via Netscape, the original .pdf opened an empty window, as Jackie mentioned, plus Acrobat reader, also blank. now at home via IE, with the multiple pdf's, I get an attempt to download the files which results in "access denied", but I'm wondering if this is due to my firewall... nope, same result. http://home.mn.rr.com/wwftd/

Could those who are having difficulties see if they can access the other pdf files I have on my site? Here are three of them, all of which work fine for me: http://maxqnz.com/poetry.pdf http://maxqnz.com/wss.pdf http://maxqnz.com/shanks.pdf
Right. The above PDFs and the renewed HTML file all work fine. Your eire.pdf must have a gremlin. Thanks for the effort Max.

In advance of all the above posts about it not working, it worked just fine for me, MaxQ. Must be something magical about the godforsaken islands on which we both live...maybe our computers feel sorry for us...

The above worked fine where other did not. Thank you Max.
Recently read an article about Ireland as it is now. It was, I believe, "Riding The Celtic Tiger." Can't recall where or I would quote exactly. However, the gist was that with the increase in local prosperity the younger generation has little time for all the Celtic myths of earlier generations. The old angers are not finding recruits among the new generation. And a good thing too. As one of Irish ancestry I am delighted to see the growth of the nation's economy and a leaving behind of all the old enmities. But I retain the right to watch and enjoy "Ballykissangel" and the Three Irish Tenors on PBS.

At the risk of stating what may be obvious and well-known: "irish schmirish" and like phrases are a yiddish construction.

Hey, [brushing the beach sand out of my hair-e] I just got this far in my ketchup on the board and thought I'd let you know that your link worked fine for me, Max. Must be "mysterious forces at work" preventing the others from tuning it in. BTW, was that leprechaun writing? It was soooo small!
