I wish web developers didn't go out of their way to make hacks so IE will display their page. By continually coding workarounds for IE, it is making MS think, "Well, $%^# the standards, everyone is going to make it work in IE anyway." I think that as long as the code is 100% standards compliant, it is the browser's responsibility to make sure things display correctly. I can see why developers would want to support broken browsers, but if they didn't we would see either A) Microsoft make IE standards compliant, or B) more people switching to Firefox or other standards compliant browsers, both of which are positive results.
While I agree that the whole debate surrounding this issue is asinine, it is equally idiotic that the sticker was placed there in the first place. Why single out evolution?

Why make the hard-worked teachers to spend hours of time putting on the sticker in the first place?
