For you Internet Explorer 6 users out there: If you’re using an older version of Internet Explorer (6 or lower), chances are you’re doing it because you’ve no choice but to do so. I appreciate your situation—I really do. However, I can’t really allow you the same freedom I would allow others on this site because Internet Explorer 6 is unsafe. So, if you can’t use Google Chrome Frame, update your version of Internet Explorer, or download Firefox, I’m going to have to present to you the bare-bones, vanilla version of this website. Since the content here is awesome, you should still be able to enjoy yourself. Cheers!
