    Usually the people that break into your house do not have the foresight to plan to this degree.

    That's why every site I create is built in plain ol' XHTML/CSS first. Once that's done, I'll go ahead and 2.0 it up a bit with some fresh AJAX, but I'll leave the original functionality of the site untouched.

    Not every web developer is a conscientious as me?

    That's an outrage!</sarcasm>

    Seriously, though, why, in this day and age of the internet making information to all, are web developers not interested in making information available to ALL, anymore? Why go out of your way to cut off a large portion of your viewership?

    Even sites which rely on ads or subscriptions.

    I'd gladly kill Joe the Plumber if I were ordered to and there would be no repercussions.

    Would I be so willing to kill anyone else, unprovoked, even if ordered to? No.

    I wouldn't be surprised to find that the majority of our military think the same.

    When the French get wind of the conflict, I'm sure they'll come to the aid of the American People, over the American Government.

    Or they'll sit there, point, laugh and say "Hey, we saved your asses once. You're on your own this time, guys."

    Either way, I'm sure there are enough countries in the world that would love to invade the US if they knew they would have the support of the American people at large in overthrowing an overgrown and corrupt government.

    I know I'd gladly fight alongside any foreign or domestic militia who shared the common goal of reducing the US government down to what it should be.

    Wouldn't you?
