% Oh dear! Not only said browser is unfavourably commented upon in
% this list, but especially a particular feature ("this bug is a
% feature") which has draw a lot of "comments" on it. And I thought

It may well be that I don't understand the issue, but writing 

   ... without sacrificing device-independance or adding <BLINK>new HTML
   tags</BLINK> ...

strikes me as a form of humour. (Yes, I reckon that *my own* sense of humour 
is a bit warped)
