World Firefox Day

kbrosnan writes "Are you a fan of Firefox? Want to spread the word to a friend who hasn't heard of it yet? If you can convince just one person to switch to Firefox before September 15th, you'll both be immortalized in Firefox 2.0's source code."

    Hell yea. My idea of celebrating worldfirefox day is getting the HUGE memory leak squashed. [ My FF current on 150 MB out of my 256 MB RAM !] .

    Open Source is a disgusting socialist philosophy, a European plot aimed at destroying red-blooded American software such as Microsoft Genuine Advantage Windows. The history of this disgusting movement is shrouded in mystery, but what little we know should strike revulsion into the heart of every Christian patriot.

    While Linux is clearly a tool of disgusting hackers who blather on about rediculous topics like "global warming" and "science", Firefox is a more insiduous movement. I was appalled to find my 15 year old son had installed it on our computer at home, despite the fact we use Microsoft Genuine Advantage Windows!!

    Even the websites of the righteous are under attack from these liberal tree-huggers.

    Although this list seems like a fine idea - by knowing our enemies, we can correct their sins.

    What do you think, SlashDott?

    I think it is strange that someone who pretends to know something about computers would think that additional lines of comments in source code will result in a larger executable.

    Id rather immortalize Opera 9 or Safari 2.0 becauase both render faster than sluggzilla.

    It is similarly a good idea to simply summarize the whole point of the site and watch the +1 insightful mods roll right in.... I mean, you didn't even say anything of your own, let alone anything insightful!
