Every now and then, we at particleman.org like to strip things down. It was time to simplify and we were tired of looking at the tried and true old page. We used the basic elements contributed by our friend Chris Sandoval in his original design from 2003. Was it that long ago? Yes, it was. Hence all the more reason for a facelift.
The new theme here is “less is more,” “simpler is better,” “we’re lazy and less code equates to less work.” Nothing else should have changed. We still take bad jokes too far and ignore the laws of tact. You’ll hopefully like the new page as much as the old one. And if you didn’t like the old one, too bad, we never cared. And if you don’t like this one, also too bad, because it’s on the cutting edge of technology. I mean, check it out, that’s HTML back there. There might even be a style sheet.
Keep in mind the site is still in a transitory state and some pages might retain the old look for a little while. No no, let’s not call it the “old” look. “Legacy” sounds so much better.

i think rather than using the royal "we" you should go with the even more insane 3rd person. Example: “Particleman lazy and less code equates to less work.” Nothing else should have changed. Particleman still takes bad jokes too far and ignore the laws of tact. You’ll hopefully like the new page as much as the old one. And if you didn’t like the old one, too bad, Particleman never cared. mucho bueno.

I'm not sure I'm feeling the "Legacy" thing. I think I'll be calling it the Dromedary version.
