Yes. It is not the most efficient solution, but it's not like users are
beating a path to my door.

Umm. That's the point. The XML and XSLT happens server-side, and the only
thing that the user gets to see is vanilla-flavoured HTML.
I noticed from my server logs that some people came to have a look, only
saw the 'start' screen, and I suppose thought: 'Oh, this is HTML, I have
seen that before' and never linked through. 

There is also a Java applet that runs off the same XML server, but then it
uses the 'raw' XML and no XSLT transforms are done.
