I started a research institute. Our goal was to find out how to center divs in css.

Sir, I find this of great interest and a noble pursuit. I would very much like to invest large sums of my newly created cryptocurrency in this. Have your people contact my people.

Hi, I'm Richard Brain, a farce for good in this world, and I want to shovel piles of my new POS CraptoCurrency "HOAX", the first high interest blockchain certificate of despotic (CD) offered to “stalkers”, into your centralized div laundering company!

Sir, please get in touch. Include the last 4-digits of your SSN so I can verify against my own records.

That's far beyond OP's already lofty ambitions, I'm afraid.

too hard, you might have a better chance in your endeavor by forking the web into 2 things.

- A web of apps: A (sand-boxed) VM environment that has the advantage of not having to install the programs locally and with a capability based model. this is already similar to what's already here but once you commit to it you can ditch the DOM and other things.

- A web of documents.
