“You are only allowed to use parts of someones writing, not the whole thing.” That’s what I did before… but there were complaints that the site was inaccessable to some people, so I pasted it here for the people using Macs. _shrug_ it was the best I could do in this case. Not my problem that Macs aren’t compatable with the java on that site. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by RobbieFal \* > \*\*Not my problem that Macs aren’t compatable with the java on that site. \*\* Just for the record… it’s not that Macs aren’t compatible with the java on the site… it’s pretty clear that he set it up so that Macs can’t access his site. Says a lot about him that he went out of his way to make it inaccessable to a percentage of the population. ---

I have edited the link in the OP so anyone who actually WISHES a browser crash will have to delete the spaces I inserted in it. I have also deleted the wholesale copying of an article. **RobbieFal,** in the future, please be more considerate of crashing people’s browsers. Also, do not copy and paste entire articles, even if it IS hard for others to get to the link. ---

“RobbieFal, in the future, please be more considerate of crashing people’s browsers.” Sure… even if there isn’t too much I can do about that (unless I specifically know what does or doesn’t crash a mac) “Also, do not copy and paste entire articles, even if it IS hard for others to get to the link.” What’s the limit set around the days of when FreeRepublic got sued? is it 60%, 65%?
