remove underlines on links, please
Hypertext links should not be underlined by the style. That is a
browser preference item that is typically turned off by people who
know the option exists.

Ah, yes. I guess I slightly misunderstood. The patch is fine with me.

ehm, what do you mean with "everything"? The link behaviour just turns
to browser default.

IMHO we should be consistent and keep the color change only. If the
browser underlines a:hover by default, it's his issue...
The attached patch sticks only with the text-decoration:none for
p.letters a:link. That should be kept, IMHO.

As I've said, I agree with this, and enough people have expressed this
opinion that I will make that change. That means turning off
underlining for *everything*.
Does anyone have opinions about whether the underline should be turned
on for hover, or should we just stick with the change in background
color alone?
