Hmmm.  When does an entirely reasonable mass customer complaint become a DoS
attack?  I hadn't even thought of your post being an incitement to DoS, but
I had to check that it really didn't work, then I had to look for a contact
address to complain...  I _expect_ people to email me when my websites
aren't compatible with any browser, but I might have a small fit if 20,000
people contacted me in a day.
