Internet Explorer End Of Life Transition Path
As outlined by Microsoft's official policy, the transition path is to follow:
OEM-Vendors: will continue bundling IE10 with no fewer than 32,768 OEM specific plug-ins and search bars, as per "the agreement."
Home users: through the dark caverns of innumerable bonzi buddies and search helpers, and through the cloistered mass of trojans and activeX malware, Windows will at first notify, then plead, then insist, and finally quietly download and install Edge with, or without your knowledge. You are to verbally complain (with or without audience) that either "someone changed my icons" or "the internet button isnt working."
Embedded applications: checkout appliances, billboards, interactive kiosks, computerized lathes and mills, and medical devices will continue to run Internet Explorer 3.0 until the last star falls from the heavens or the last operator dives from a major skyscraper.
Banking institutions: please continue to ensure browsers conform to at least windows explorer. The version clearly doesnt matter. Hell, just getting the name to stick with you guys is an accomplishment
Doris in finance: please install the final pinochle/oprah book club toolbar to your barely recognizeable "browser." Doing so will collapse the waveform and upon its arrival, shear the very fabric of reality and spacetime into what you may perceive as a perfect game of web solitare but which is in actuality the very embodiment of a digital christ, if you will. The singularity now ushered upon us, we may finally become one with infinity through your divine portal. The bonzi buddy will confirm this with his signature "flip". http://tech.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=8577305&cid=51249791

Slippery? When Sarcastic?
 :-) The Archive has that one snapshot of it. Someone put it somewhere safe and visible, please. Cheers, Scott.

"There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge."
-- Isaac Asimov

I have it, just not online
Comcast decided to pull the plug on the web hosting that came with their internet access package. Haven't found a replacement yet.

It's easy to put it somewhere, it's just it would be nice to be "built-in"
I could put it somewhere and make a tinyURL for it, but it would be impossible to remember. Like it used to be something like: z.iwethey.org/images/sarcasm.png The WeeCode for it was handy, also too. ;-) Cheers, Scott. (Who isn't asking for extra coding - the FSM knows all of our time is over-committed.)
