If you will re-read the original post, nowhere does it advocate turning off ALL street lights, just every other one (half). Still ample light for the unarmed/unprepared to walk, drive, and play by.
Yes, if you assume they tested the other browsers. I could have missed it, but I did not see other browsers mentioned in TFA as excluded from the vulnerability, so I tried it for myself, and thought other would find it interesting.
TFA: "In addition, PIE, which can't be easily removed, can also act as a cookie backup, since it contains the same information."
TFA links to a MacroMedia site that tells you how *prevent* PIE infection, but how do you get rid of it if you are *already* infected? For that matter, how can you tell if you are infected?
I have never understood why anybody would post an article on/. then act all aghast over the/. effect. Do they really not know? Are they "testing" the effect? Are they CowboyNeal groupies?
Reminds me of the time I hacked the code running a piece of commercial equipment so that the screen prompt read "Huh?" instead of "Okay." The OEM techs couldn't figure out how I did it ot "fix" it. Initially, management was not amused. Then they thought about it and gave me a promotion and raise. Respect followed me like a dog after a meat wagon.

Please suggest, then, a means for producing electricity that does not "damage the environment."

Unquestionably hydro and nuclear production does not figure into the equation. Nonetheless, oil and coal fueled plants would see a marked difference.
Interestingly, the same green weenies that decry oil- and coal-fired generators lobby for the destruction of hydroelectric dams.
Where's the logic?
Less energy/oil dependence, convenience. Pick *one*.
Guess that goes to illustrate how seriously the "save energy" mantra is taken.
Cars have headlights. Get a flashlight.
Take a look at this http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap001127.html
Simply mandating that cities turn off every other street light after 2300 hours would save tens of thousands of barrels per day.
Lithium-Ion battery and 1.75 hours, according to this http://www.aerovironment.com/news/news-archive/was p62.html
...struggles to come up with something original, fails, puts on tinfoil hat and broods.
"I wouldn't know how to even START naming a Beowulf Cluster of Robot Sharks."
A circuit of sharks?
An elasmobranch of robots?
A bulwark of Beowulfs?

Problem?
And we can get the patch where?
Just for grins, I tried it wi IE and Opera. Just threw up a bunch of XXXXX in the text box.
Clearly a Mozilla-specific problem.

That was the impression I got after viewing the site. The site owner was apparently prepared for slashdotting.

I don't get it.
"Have integrity. Be yourself. Do unto others as you'd have them do unto yours. Respect will then be granted to you."
In other words, you will receive respect after you *earn* it by your conduct.
..."invisible links on it's front page."
Is that the same things as meta tags? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meta_tags

In the words of William T. Riker: "Obedience is given, respect is earned."

Would that I could mod this +10 Insightful and put it up in 40-point flashing type.
No, I do the rejecting, not the sending.
One would think they would be glad for the free ink.
Corporate lawyers give me gas.
If you send a mss full of passive voice to a real-world magazine, the editor will reject it.
I know because I do it all the time.
As a magazine editor, I see the I/me thing a lot. Actually, you'd be amazed at what I see from "professional" writers.
No, he meant... ...oh, never mind.
In other words, if you cannot back up an assertion resort to meaningless rhetoric.
