What's with all the comparison to what other
people do with their software?

If they got it wrong, all the more reason for
us to get it right!

PS. Facts for fans: Lisp is from 1958 onwards,
    Emacs from 1976, Netscape is a youngster
    from 1994 and Firefox, from 2002, is either
    a ridiculously young chap or a female whose
    absolute prime is but a few years away :)
