thanks, but i don't agree... i just happen to be vocal, and
commenting from a position in which i have experience... doesn't
make me more experienced than others, or right... although i
certainly will act like it...

fwiw, we took it beyond that... mark and i are discussing the finer
points of the concept of style vs. content, and where the
demarcation occurs... i am, however, staying out of the DOM
discussion...

i was only offended at the part where an assumption is made that
users can upgrade, but choose not to... but that was more of an
offense to my professional sensibilities, since i know i'm not a
target user of the site...
that being said, you do make a good point about how even well-
intentioned projects and messages can upset some users...
