as I wrote, it's "authored" with googlepages, i.e. yes, the original
text is written with vim (it'is my outline file), than the pages were
copy-pasted into googlepages and formatted with bullets, and finally
the links were added. That's it, 5+ pages in less then 5 minutes.

The 18k/3k css/content ratio is yes, strange in my case, but please
appreciate it's really light content there. I don't want to defend
googlepages, but I think even with average content of modern webpages
(more text, pictures!, or even bg sound) the css overhead gets
unnoticed...

Have a nice day,
  Peter
