You may want to... uhh... have some content that you don't have to download, that's very important.
 
^hmmmm, i only post everything in PDF, because that's the easiest thing to do as there are a lot of equations and images involved and uploading every single one of them is extremely tedious.

Do you have problems downloading them?
 
Well no, but its a lot nicer if you could have it in an html form that doesn't need downloading. I don't quite know how to say it but, I guess its kind of a hassle to go out of your way to download a pdf and open it, for me at least. And a website looks better when it has content, not just 3 pages.
