Damn Microsoft

If you're reading this site using Internet Explorer and the page looks all funny, don't blame me.
Blame Microsoft.
You see, Microsoft decided not to follow web standards when creating IE. Standards that other browsers (like, say, Firefox) follow. Standards that make creating websites easier.
But they refuse to follow the standards and are going about the web experience their own way.
I've spent hours trying to find a good way to make the front page look nice in Internet Explorer. But there isn't any. It all still works, though. But I'm not about to give up my hours of hard work because of the idiots in Redmond, Washington. Sorry.
If you haven't already done so, download Firefox. You'll be glad you did.

I've had comments about my page looking crappy in IE too... My sympathy is limited! I always leave a link to Firefox. It's the only browser worth using!
