So, for those of you who see nothing here but a really ugly white page with text, I'd like to officially welcome you to Microsoft-Free Friday. Supposedly, there should be an informative message that tells you what's up, but somehow PHP is getting through the mod and pushing text out. Oh well.

So why am I doing this? Lots of reasons. First off, I don't have this page up to make money, so I'm not losing any by doing it. Mainly, though, I'm running this mod out of antipathy for Microsoft in general, and Internet Explorer in particular... believe me, there are plenty of better, faster, more secure, and more standards-compliant web browsers out there. By now you'd have really had to crawl out from under a rock to not know that. Oh, and to those who say, "What about websites that are IE only?" my reply is simple: when I encounter such a site, I go elsewhere, right after sending a pointed email to webmaster@ that domain telling them that I've just clicked ads/spent money at a competitor's site. Money talks, you know the rest.
