Gnomic Utterances. These are traditional, and are set at the head of each section of the Guidebook. The reason for them is lost in the mists of History. They are culled by the Management from a mighty collection of wise sayings probably compiled by a SAGE—probably called Ka’a Orto’o—some centuries before the Tour begins. The Rule is that no Utterance has anything whatsoever to do with the section it precedes. Nor, of course, has it anything to do with Gnomes.

Man, *slow*, though, especially on the 45MB TIFFs. *g*My only problem is that the old set of JPEGs was listed as "compressed at a 10:1 ratio", and a day of image research doesn't even tell me if that's a meaningful or repeatable metric. Some websites imply that it's not. Certainly the ImageMagick "quality" switch is IM-specific. But if there's a way to make ImageMagick "compress at a 10:1 ratio" -- or even if that's a meaningful command -- I can't find it.
