Way to qualify yourself again.... So choosing the engine that started the entire world wide web phenomina is for some reason dumb? You do realize that Mosaic, the first web browser ever (which was OpenSource) was created by the same person that later made and marketed Netscape (which did well for years before MS decided to make their own browser), who then returned that source base back to the OpenSource arena to form Mozilla/FireFox. You realize this, right?

If you think that ANY other broswer is the "de facto standard", then frankly, you have no idea what you're talking about. And the fact that you're using the web to try to make this point just shows how ignorant you are of your own history.

You've lost your argument (and your dignity). The fact that you can't see it yet just makes it all the more painful. I'd call you a belittling name or such, but I already pity you enough that it would be inhumane to do so. Like kicking a lame cross-eyed puppy.

Good luck "justifying" your twisted point of view to those that will bother to listen. I'm sure you can find a few people that will ditto your warped take on reality. Maybe you can all start your own radio show and promote close-sourced development...
