   Ultra-Axiomatics:   
      
   The personal computing, including good ol’ 16-bit DOS, had 80 columns. That   
   is, the maximum width was 80 characters in a monospaced font. Many reports in   
   the early days of Usenet were created for an 80-column screen. We can resort   
   to that width by    
   changing the max-width: 60em; line to 80 characters horizontally. Thus, the   
   block of text we need to add to the browser becomes:   
      
   div[role=region] {   
    font-family: Consolas, Courier, monospace;   
    display: block;   
    max-width: 80em;   
    white-space: pre-wrap;   
   }   
   div[role="region"] br {   
    display: none;   
   }   
      
   Incidentally, the Courier font is easier to read at any age! Ain’t it so,   
   Kotkoduck, Kokostirk et al.?   
      
   Here is a statistical report created for an 80-column screen. Look how clearly   
   it looks in Stylus compared to the proportional-font screen you were used to   
   –   
      
    Lotto 5 / 43 Report: DECADES & LAST-DIGITS   
    File: PA-5; Date: 07-17-2015   
    Draws Analyzed: 1000    
       
    The numbers in each column in the DEC area show how many numbers from the   
   DECADE listed in the header came out   
    in the corresponding drawing. The numbers in the 2nd area show the   
   distribution of the LAST DIGIT for every number   
    in the lotto draw; e.g. 20 has last digit 0; lotto #1 has 1 as last digit,   
   lotto #43 has 3 as last digit, etc.
