old AOL Sprintedon Hollow Homepage                                       

There's a site map link at the bottom of this page, 
but if you haven't read this page, please read it first.  
Thank you.          [ last modified: 2008-02-10 ]

[ 2007-11-07 Note: 
Major color changes made again.  See near  
bottom of this page new hex colors, but I am back to a 
gray page.  This gray's rgb is  192 192 192. ]

[ 2007-10-11 Note:  This page is an explanatory adjunct 
entry, and  therefore is not a homepage in the traditional 
sense.  The core page  (entry) for this site is p00260jlctr 
(Journal Links Center or site map),  and will always be so.  
However, this page is important, and should  be read by each 
visitor to Sprintedon Hollow.  Thank you. ]


[ 2007-10-13 Note:  
Sprintedon Hollow is a nonchronological record  of my life 
as a writer.  Despite being 66, if I live long enough to find  
out, I may be in the early stages of my writer life.  Although 
I engage  reality at every turn, many works of mine are 
dreamscapes: that is,  they are dream-like escapes from 
reality.  

In some ways I am like  
W. S. Landor / John Clare / E. A. Robinson; 
but perhaps my disclosing this is not wise, so whispers the 
chameleon in me. ]

[ 2007-10-21 Note:  You cannot count on my always using the same  
colors.  It is PM 7:28.  The present color codes are near the bottom  
of this page. ]

[ 2007-10-22 Note:  
So, the gray background I wrote about earlier  
this month has been replaced by 8080c0, which is a purpled gray. ]
10-09-2007
With one thing leading to another, to another, to another, to another,
to another with an intermingling of personal troubles, this has been a
valuable but difficult day.  Long have I considered October to be the
month of changes, and with this page/ this day becomes a preeminent
day of change for this blog.  It is PM 8:05, so "Good evening."  I am
Brian A J Salchert.  Why I am is an absolute mystery to me, but why
the background of this page is rgb 128 128 128 gray--a shade that
is exactly midway between black and white--is not; but more about
that later.  To the left of this blog is an "All About Me" sidebar.  
I've not been happy with it for some while, but I am not going to 
remove it.  However, much of what is there will be transferred to 
here, and a link to here will be placed on it.  The link color for 
this blog is aqua (or cyan, if you prefer).  Several links relating 
to me or to this blog will be inserted into this page.  You will know 
by the information I present in each/ where it will whip you to.  If 
you have not/ figured it out, I am an INFP: uncertainty is my milieu, 
creativity my passion, and persistence my compass.  Nonetheless, I am 
such a failed being I recently began calling myself:
the ghost in the dumpster
.
See the green period.  That is my sense of humor, which comes from
the 1/4 English in me.  The other 3/4's are German, with a who-won-the-war 
wisp of French.  I pronounce my surname as if it were two first names: 
Saul'kurt.  Completing this page is going to take a while.  Where that 
while is going to be taken is anyone's guess.  Unless theyhave changed 
them, w3c has a palette of 16 acceptable colors.  I donot like some of 
their choices.  The color this text is in is not one of them.  The palette 
AOL uses is (as I have mentioned elsewhere) IE's basic colors palette.  
The other day I discovered two errors I need toget to MS tech about.  
The color this text is in is not available on thatpalette either, but 
the color this text is in is one of the 216 safe colors.

10-10-2007
Of the 16 w3c colors, 8 are among the so-called safe colors.  There
is, however, a logical reason for this.  255 0 0 is red and 0 0 255 is
blue, but 0 255 0 is not green.  It is a light green.  Equidistant from 
red and blue is 0 128 0, the rgb code for true green, which is not a
"safe" color.  Of the supposedly 48 IE colors, one color is repeated,
being both at R5 C7 and R6 C7.  I have no idea why.  Also, in the
javascript environment of AOL Journals, the color at R3 C5 is not
coded correctly, showing 040080 instead of the correct 004080.
All this is really no big deal, but it is curious.  Not too surprisingly,
there are 8 safe colors in IE's basic colors, the same 8 w3c has.  For 
more about colors, including w3c's colors, see my math links.  Though I 
did not expect it, I recently saw that because I use colors in some of 
my poems and elsewhere// this gray background best serves my needs.  


I am a writer.  Some background facts about me are in the directory
at Poets & Writers.  
Over the years I have tended to be reclusive, a result of which is the 
presence of 9 completed books of my poems and 4 others in progress  
in this journal (weblog / blog / webbed log), with more expected. 
 
Math, autobio, and other entries are also here.  On June 22,  
2007, in another galaxy in the Internet universe, I began my 
Rhodingeedaddee blog.  Its focus is: thoughts on poetry and 
other  wonders.  I will not be moving any entry in Sprintedon Hollow to 
there, nor will I be placing any of my poems or math delvings there.

Regarding extra-sites linked to:  Personal education is my reason for
linking to them.  I am not promoting any product which might be found
thereon.  If a site I provide a link to contains an ad or ads for a product
or products of interest to you, exit from Sprintedon Hollow/ and go
directly to that site.
