The crowning level of the stupidity is that, if you want to point others to a URL, you can always navigate to it, copy, and paste the URL into a appropriate medium, be it email, or a hardcopy document you physically hand to someone.
The fact that people's diapers fill so quickly when convenience breeds perceived decreases in privacy remains fascinating.
Oh, if your name is Scott Adams, it will be.
Stand by for a "business idiocy" strip boom, as Wally, Catbert, Dogbert and the PHB get their own strips just to handle the tshi'nami this will cause.
The only thing you need to learn in Emacs is C-h C-h (hold down the control key and tap 'h' twice).
The uber-help menu will take you where you need to go.
When befuddled, M-x doctor (Alt-x, then type 'doctor' in the mini-buffer) will call up Eliza, the built-in doctor.
Can't confirm if this is really Dr. Eliza Spaceman (spuh-chay-man), the parent of Dr. Leo Spaceman on 30 Rock, but it is fun to speculate.
With service like this, how can these pagan infidels denigrate the Esteemed Mother Amongst Computer Software?
This is speculation, but I think that the browser may use the COM MicroSort VBScript Regular Expressions 5.5 library, at c:\WINDOWS\System32\vbscript.dll, for doing regular expressions.
If that's true, (and I figure someone will calibrate me if I'm wrong) that could explain an apparent performance anomaly, if the browser farms out the string manipulations to another process.
Fa{ir|re} is what you pay to ride a bus.
I'm sure they read our snarky little comments there in Redmond, glance over at their portfolio screens, and say "Keep laughing, little worms".
OK, that beat my grad school experience of having to go to a weekend seminar class (costing $500 or something) and having the hairbrain instructor not be capable of doing a simple JavaScript form with three text boxes, summing the first two into the third.
I was surfing the internet, to his annoyance, and when he failed again with his extremely simple example, I said "Well, I've got it working over here".
What a disgraceful waste of time that was.

Money, or so some think.
What would be exquisitely funny is if they threw the whole upgrade party, and everyone just went on the internet instead.

You are such a tase, bro.

+1 Funny doesn't actually bump the karma of the poster.
All in all, it was just a brick in the wall.
Of course there is the old standby remark about how choice of licensing reduces us to mere speculation, instead of real knowledge.
Your post is better.

The latest Civilization. It's the Emacs of games.
Better fix wikipedia then: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/It's_My_Party_(song)
Single digit months, and a three digit year?
Such an old fellow, for such a high user ID...
I certainly prefer it as well, but let's wait until something is actually _released_, shall we?
It's my property and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to, cry if I want to
You would cry too if revenue deserted you
Nobody knows where my moolah has gone
But total control left the same time
Why were they streaming these songs
Pay us or pay a big fine
It's my property and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to, cry if I want to
You would cry too if revenue deserted you
Then all my records keep dancing all night
But leave me alone for a while
'Til money's dancing in my wallet
I've got no reason to smile
It's my property and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to, cry if I want to
You would cry too if revenue deserted you
NAB and the listener just walked thru the door
Like a queen with her king
Oh what a birthday surprise
NAB's wearing his MP3 thing
It's my property and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to, cry if I want to
You would cry too if revenue deserted you
Oh-oh-oh It's my property and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to, cry if I want to.....
Screw honesty to the wall, man: this is marketing!
Goes to show that, if you want to be the 800lb gorilla, you can expect exactly 0 love.
Why should that surprise?

Oh, if you've the misfortune of booting a Redmond partition, it'll eventually decide to install itself, no doubt.

If it takes until version 8 to support Acid 2, or 2^3,
then, when Acid 3 comes out, we can expect conformance by IE27?

Yeah, should have researched that one.
