Guido may be a great language designer, but the color scheme and background on his blog is revolting. Is he color blind?

I guess he wanted it low-key, but distinctive.

What bothers me is that the html is 69429 chars, to deliver 11392 words of text. Not even counting linked CSS and JS (which will be cached), that's 6 html chars for every char of content.

Seriously, HTML is turning into .doc.
