I went to look at your Math Teacher Link site and even though I am working
on  PowerPC 7600/132 with 48MB of RAM I find that my computer *bombs* when
I go into your pages. It wasn't just one random time, either. I was rather
persistent and it did it several times.

This is not something that happens with other sites. I have been roaming
around a lot this week. (I am on Spring Break!) I have been going into
pages with java applets and animated gifs and all kinds of things which
you would think might crash a system and I have been having no other problems.

Has anyone else ever told you of such problems with your site? I really
wanted to look around....but....I don't like bombs.  :(

Sincerely,
Suzanne Alejandre
