Our bodies are constantly doing a balancing act to keep the blood in an alkaline state– that is 7.4 or above.

Sometimes it’s like walking a tightrope trying to get IE to display a search box the same size as it appears in Firefox. It can be a really frustrating endeavor, not to mention a waste of time.

Web browsers should differentiate themselves in their speed and features, not in how they interpret the standards suggested by the W3C. I look forward to that day, the web will be better off.

There are some hopeful movements, such as the Web Standards project that are trying to make it easy for browser vendors to get on the same page.
