Yikes. Yet another Javascript Hell, I thought.

No, it's not Javascript-the-language what I don't like, but
this blurring between Web page and full-fledged application,
unfurling at the user's browser while dynamically sucking up
bits and pieces of the Whole Internet, with ill-defined
licenses, provenances and *intentions*. That's why I always
browse with Javascript disabled and run away when a page
presents itself as a black (or white) hole.

Then... I went to try it. It actually falls back gracefully
for the non-Javascript folks!

So thanks for catering to us dinosaurs :-)

Note to self: always try before ranting...

Cheers&thanks again
