Ohgodyess!! Ooohhh yes yes yes!! The third ripple! The third! All three!!! Ohhh!!!
That my first Triple Ripple Troll, turned out to be a troll himself, is something I shall always cherish. Thank you, Anal Cocks. Yours is the first stuffed and preserved cock that is hung on my wall, and I shall always remember you for that.
There is no such thing as "wide" web pages. HTML is a logical markup language. Your software renders pages however wide or narrow as it wants to. For example, if you have a graphical browser, you can resize Slashdot and the paragraphs widen or shink as necessary. Your printing software should be formatting the pages as appropriate for your printing preferences.
I think I understand the problem you're having, as I experienced something similar. The government data mining page contains a script that demonstrates how data mining works, similar in some ways to the scripts at anonymizer.com.
The problem is that it has a bug in the browser history analyzer. On some browsers or with some types of pages in the history, it accidently calls up that page. So even though it's supposed to just be showing your history, it may display an image from a site you were browsing earlier.
...to scrub his profits, he and fellow money launderers use a private, password-protected website that daily updates an inventory of U.S. currency available from cartel distributors across North America, says a veteran Treasury Department investigator. Kind of like a business-to-business exchange, the site allows black-market money brokers to bid on the dirty dollars, which cartel financial chiefs want to convert to Colombian pesos to use for their operations at home. "A trafficker can bid on different rates -- 'I'll sell $1 million in cash in Miami,'" says the agent. "And he'll take the equivalent of $800,000 in pesos for it in Colombia." The investigator estimates the online bazaar's annual turnover at as much as $3 billion.
In 1999, I worked on this system. We took the eBay code that crack.com had leaked, and tweaked it. Since we had pirated eBay's code, we weren't bound by the burdensome terms of the GPL. It's hard to make money on Open Source these days. Fortunately, my employers know which parts to take, and which parts to leave. You just have to use the most appropriate tools and licenses as circumstances warrant. (Except we don't actually like people to say "warrant" around here, I'm sure you can understand.)

Ok. I did, but didn't see what you're referring to. Do I have to use a special browser to recreate a bug that yours is experiencing?
Because he knows what he's talking about. That's a lot of authority.
