“Did you really think that we want those laws to be observed?” said Dr. Ferris.
“We want them broken... There's no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What's there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced nor objectively interpreted—and you create a nation of law-breakers—and then you cash in on guilt. Now that's the system, Mr. Rearden, that's the game, and once you understand it, you'll be much easier to deal with.”
Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged, Ch. III, White Blackmail

linking: Attempts at the public-policy level to limit the
usage, transmission and publication of URIs at the policy level
are inappropriate and based on a misunderstanding of the Web's
architecture. Attempts to control access to the resources
identified by URIs are entirely appropriate and well-supported
by the Web technology.

I share the views of Stefan Arnborg, professor of computer science at NADA, on what's appropriate to send via email, and what's not. Please respect them!
Do you use Mozilla (you should!) and want to know exactly how cool XUL is? Take a look at this! (You might need to middle-click to open the link in a new tab.) Another more practical thing you might want to try out is go to View, Styles and select one of the alternate style sheets. Ain't it nice? (I concede that they aren't very good-looking, though, but that's besides the point.)
IE is not a web browser. Yep, it's true.
