Harrumph. Noticed the message on the home page, "Netscape 4.x compatibility coming soon." Aside from it being misleading (the "what for" article was easy enough to get to with Netscape 4.7), it's also awfully arrogant and presumptuous. If web site designers continue to design for what "looks cool in Imploder," rather than for what anybody can view whether they're using Imploder, Netscape, Opera, Mozilla, Mosaic, or Lynx, then Microsloth WILL effectively own the Internet, and we'll ALL be stuck paying The Bill.

While this is off-topic for this thread, I couldn't agree more with hbquik. Web designers: Code to standards (http://www.w3.org/)! Web users: Use standards-compliant browsers (http://webstandards.org/act/campaign/buc/)! Then everyone (not just IE users on Windows) will be happy.

Actually, I'd meant to say something on-topic as well, something to the effect that Hill's not-necessarily-"Any Brower"-compliant web site is about as arrogant as Pressler's attitudes. (Seems to me that Pressler was the REAL "anti-Walt.")

For those interested in the AnyBrowser campaign (and by the way, if I want to use MP PMs, I have to go to Imploder), it's at http://www.anybrowser.org

At any rate, I liked the Florida Pooh, and am firmly convinced that our Pooh will not turn out to be so much "ursine scat." Just as I'm quite convinced that it was the combination of excess capacity and "Vacation Hoedown" (which WAS ursine scat) that killed our CBJ. (Thank God the Florida management went back to the original show, or WDW-MK, too, would probably be bearless by now.)
