At what point do we issue the advice :-
''The following phrase will help you when you find a job more suited to your
knowledge and skill set - "would you like fries with that?".''
I don't see instructing people on how to drive their browsers as suitable
for this list. I think we should be able to assume *some* level of knowledge.
After all, the very first thing Netscape "Help Contents" shows me is links to
"viewing page information" and "viewing page source".
None of the above is meant to be critical of anybody who has contributed
to the thread so far. Same as with the netiquette issues, it's a question
of keeping the list useful.
