No, it is, as it says, a picture of Nixon. How does one post an image here?

If you answer a post, you'll find the 'Img' button underneath the subject header (the line where you can change colour, size etc).

I don't think the Img button works for an .htm file. Why on earth not? No idea really. (Maybe Alex knows.)

So as not to be accused of being off-topic, do you think Nixon might have had a show biz career in mind when he quit?

Simply because an .htm file is not an image file.

Right, and the picture I inserted was a .gif file -- which I knew was a type of image file. Very Happy

Nixon had Quaker roots, so big-time showbiz woulda been out of the question. But who knows... maybe he could sing. It'd be nice if our heads of state would share their talents with us from time to time. I will say this for Clinton: he showed that he has a pair by trying to play the sax on live (well, semi-live) TV... that was neat. I wish they'd show their humanity more often.
