Tell HN: Gray text on white background sucks the blood out of my eyes

HN posts are so enjoyable. Unless I'm thinking up novel animal names for designers that confront me with such a "color" scheme, because 1) I have a very hard time reading even halfway through interesting posts, 2) I'm jealous, because my vision is obviously suboptimal, 3) I only got a laptop, and its display demands contrast.

It's bad. It's itching. And it's obvious. Try to find something printed with gray text on white background. Ads and porn not included.

Please! Stick to essential typography! Make it BLACK on white. TNX1E6
