About
This website was made for professor Karla Erickson's Introduction to Sociology class during the Spring 2006 semester at Grinnell College by Mark Root-Wiley. The assignment was to research anything related to Sociology. This is what I chose.
Questions, comments, criticisms, bug reports, or anything else can be sent too Mark Root-Wiley at rootwile@grinnell.edu. Or, of course, you could just plan love me. [rootwile]
If you fancy to print this document or store it forever to have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish; from this day forward until death do you part, you might be interested in a Rich Text Format copy of this report.

The Website
The site has been tested in PC Firefox and IE and Mac Firefox. I have only seen it look bad in Safari on Macs, but there have been reports of it looking fine. I'm not really sure what's going on there. I can't find a Mac with IE, but IE and Mac should never be used in the same sentence (a sin I have committed two-fold). It looks best in Firefox.
This site was styled using a variant of my "School Spirit" style sheet which is available for use as a Plans style sheet by anyone who wishes. To use it, paste
Rollovers on A Short Introduction to Plans' Features and Plans Usage were created with the overLIB javascript library. Many thanks to it.
There is also a stat counter on this site for the sole purpose of inflating my ego by being able to tell people how many people visited my site for more than 2 hours (most likely "0") last Tuesday.
