The circumlocutious and periphrastic verbiage contained within these web pages was written long ago, specifically in May of 2018, while your humble writer was afflicted with a moderately dreadful case of shingles (and a consequent and insidious and even more dreadful case of stark raving boredom), one of the several ways in which senescence has seemingly announced its arrival.  What remained was to merge the appropriate images into the text, and therein lay the dilemma: Whether to simply create one big long boring linear web page with full-sized images interspersed amongst the text with the user tediously scrolling from top to bottom, or aim for something more contemporary and interesting, and hopefully less boring, like a slideshow / image gallery thing of some sort. 

After several half-hearted and feeble attempts at creating the latter, it was decided to weenie out and look around for a canned - and hopefully free - utility to provide the desired look and feel.  After some amount of rooting around on the web, FancyBox surfaced.  Supported by JQuery, FancyBox provided pretty much what was wanted, but with a few issues, most notable amongst them being that the slideshow gallery would include all of the images on the HTML page, there being no way to limit a given slideshow to only include a specific subset of the total collection of images on the page.  It wouldn't work very well to have all of the text at the top of the page followed by all of the images at the bottom - there would be no positional association between a block of text and its associated images.  The brute force and heavy-handed and inelegant workaround chosen was to have a single big HTML page with everything on it, and have the set of  images associated with a block of text appear just below the text.  Then, when a user clicks on any one of the images, it would link to another HTML page that would allow the user to click on a particular image and open the slide show at that image.  This resulted in a somewhat ungraceful interface - the user would see the grid of images twice on the way to the slide show, once on the main page and again on the intermediate page - but it was considered that the benefits would outweigh the disadvantages.  Anyhow, ya get's what ya pay's for.
