	TIP (#19 OF 41) :  I'd like you to notice how fast every SGOL page scrolls. Tap any of the yellow buttons above to go to any page. Scroll up and down the page several times as fast as you can. Notice how the page moves every bit as rapidly as your browser, and you experience no lags, because the entirety of every SGOL page is underlyingly just plain old ASCII text/HTML, with no images or anything else that calls for additional downloading or other display delays.

	THE PERSONAL GLOSSARY OF JON PAUL SANK
	In order to understand linguistics conference talks, I began in the mid-2000s to collect linguistics terms for a glossary or dictionary of my own. Wanting a useful conference companion and having decided also to share it, I aimed my design at lightning-fast page loading, common-sense navigation, easy scrolling, and universal compatibility. Pages would be small, simple, and display-responsive. Nowadays, this research-relevant lexicon is more professional-looking, much richer with terms, and more able to render linguistics notations, even while it remains simple and nimble.
