Thank god it's only AtlaVista, and not Altavista.
When on earth will Slashdot editors start reading their posts ? Dont they know that every time a spelling mistake makes the front page, God kills a kitten ?!
You stole my reply!! Seriously though, I went back to IE at a friends place a few days ago. It's like being dumped back into the mid-eighties BBS world.
Everything... takes... forever... and it looks crap, eats all the space on your taskbar, and doesnt goddamn shut when you CTRL-F4, it just asks for a new address. Really Intuitive.
And since WHEN did people want their browser and their Email inherently unsplittable ?
If the WWW wasnt so unfriendly when you report yourself as OperaV6, I'd stop reporting as MSIE5.0 - I wonder how many other people have this experience. I'm sure Opera is close to a few percent of users, just no-one knows it!!

Right.
So these guys cooked up a really good story over a spliff one night, and decided to share it as hard science.
The basic problem is that science is based on Observation. Hence:
The new model replaces inflation and dark energy with a single energy field that oscillates in such a way as to sometimes cause expansion and sometimes cause stagnation. At the same time, it continues to explain all the currently observed phenomena of the cosmos in the same detail as the big bang theory.
Is basically pointless - rather than come up with some solid model and then refine it, they looked at existing models and made a new one which replicates the results they give - which can't be tested.
Wake me when they discover how those tiny toys get inside atoms.
