How should one argue to keep webdesigners from designing web pages only viewable in MSIE 4+ if they are comfortable with the fact that their pages can "only" be viewed by 90% (or so) of their potential users?
As long as the bulk of webdesigners take this view we are forever stuck with javascript-only menus and flash-only sites. Has anyone ever "exorcised" one of these webdesigners?
The problem with this is that we are giving the evil aliens the blueprints of our species. There is the chance,
however unlikely, that they might find a weakness... and exploit it.
my guess is that if these aliens are advanced enough to travel all the way down here and whoop our behinds _and_ have the incentive to do so, they already have our DNA.
