When watching "KLIKK" (norwegian) and they reported that by using black background the US or even Norway would save much electricity, due to the fact that white backgrounds demands more light/electricity. - No, its not a joke!!!! Whats your thoughts on the environment in this matter? When I think of it, its better for the eyes to watch a black background...

So, I told them the truth: This is a US based web site. Or, at least the servers are in the US and the language is English.... I don't think they'll ban my site because of the fact that the main author happen to live in Norway. :-) That said, I really can't understand why they have that kind of restriction. The world is getting smaller, and english news on a foreign language web site is not a bad idea. Maybe it has something to do with the advertisers.
