Ya know, Illiad is quickly bleeding off his geek points.
Sherman: set the wayback machine for the time when Netscape ruled.
The 'geeks' hated it. Why? Well, they went and implemented a dozen of so OUT OF SPEC TAGS -- center, blink, etc.
OK, back to the current age. The geeks are in love with what? Mozilla. Mozilla is the foundation for what? Netscape. And does Netscape still support BLINK? Sure as shit does, sparky.
The fact that everybody ELSE does (except maybe Opera, and who really cares?) may or may not be relevant to someone. I dunno; the fact that CSS1 and CSS2 support a 'blink' attribute and that *any geek worth a thimble full of salt* would not only KNOW this but also know HOW to use it really makes me wonder if Illiad is actually a (gasp) project manager!
Whatever. He's losing his grip. Or has. YMMV (hey, is that still a cool geek acronym or am I dating myself again?)

So that big blank line? Insert <ALPHA GEEK MODE> there.
