Woah. What a radical idea.
Have any of the people busily working away at web pages slamming Netscape
actually bothered to verify that Jim Clark actually said any of the things
he is rumored to have said? I haven't seen any documentation of anything
from what I would consider to be a reliable source.
If you want to generate publicity about something, you better make damn
sure your facts are correct, or you'll end up looking like an idiot.
Complaining that Clark didn't deny it isn't good enough.
