Just a matter of time before sometime posts a link to a clip from that Egypt-themed Futurama episode... the perfect speech, you know the one...

Oh, and PS: my personal fave is Javascript; not listed, so that's atheism I guess :) ...updated... looks like a handful of comments address the issue. "Jedi Knight", am I? Hmmm...

As an anarchist, I don't care about all them browsers working, I just care about providing the functionality and making it work for those I expect to need the functionality, in exchange I feel usefully creative and creatively useful. And hackerific, much of the time.
