  Except for the blog pages (Balkers area), Balkingpoints.com is built in both
  LCD and CRT monitor versions. (LCD being the newer, thin-panel monitors /
  CRT being the older, bulky monitors with a picture tube in them).

  Using the correct link for your monitor type will greatly enhance the rotating
  globe image on the main page. (CRT display resolution is set to 1024x768,
  LCD to 1440x900)

  If you'd like to adjust Balkers text, Netscape and Firefox users can try the
  "Text Zoom" or "Zoom" options under the View menu at the top of your
  browser. For Microsoft Internet Explorer users, the best solution is to
  download the latest MSIE. It has a handy zoom tool at the bottom
  right corner of the browser.

  Google Chrome browser provides easy translations from English.

  For all Balkbacks in chronological order, log in to your B/P Dashboard.
  You can subscribe to email notification of new Balks, from your Profile
  menu at left column.

  B/P Main is a composite satellite image of how the various sectors of the
  world appear at night, from that distance in space. Fascinating, and a true
  sociological comment on developed versus undeveloped regions of the world.

  And not completely unlike the first image ever seen by humans of our planet
  from space, the stunning "Earthrise" photo (at right) shot from Apollo 8 as
  it orbited the moon 24 Dec, 1968. Co-existence upon, and stewardship of,
  a small planet indeed...
