Did the DU web site font size just get bigger?
This is really weird ...

I refreshed the "Latest Discussion Threads" page and the text got bigger! No other web site is affected, so it's not my browser. WTF happened?? :shrug:

4. No, all I did was refresh the page and no other site is affected
I'll close the browser and start over ... maybe there's a glitch somewhere.

9. It would be at the 'top' of the lounge page
not the latest. I've done that before and felt sort of dumb when I found out how easy it was to go back to regular font size.

11. I wasn't even in the Lounge when it happened, but I see the "link"
Thanks. I'll keep that in mind if it ever happens again. :-)

All I did was refresh the "Latest Discussion Threads" page and everything got big, LOL!

6. I restarted the browser and now it's fine ...
I don't know what happened, but it's strange that it only affected DU. :tinfoilhat:

12. Oh, yeah, that, too
But I heard on Countdown tonight that the Army's failing so badly in its recruitment efforts, they'll take you - even if you're sort of, you know, blind.

13. That would be me without my contacts or glasses
But my son is 27 and has good eyes (got that gene from his dad) and just hope the draft doesn't get him.

14. If that happens,
I got a friend who knows everything about young men going to Canada (my friend has three sons in their early twenties). Just honk at me, and we'll take care of your boy.

15. Thanks...
he'd probably love it up there, being he's an outdoorsy kinda guy. I'll remember that if the draft ever comes to fruition.
