quite so.

Though, to be charitable, the original request to "get a clue" may really
have been one suggesting an alternate translation of that verse, such as:
    'So for anyone who is in Christ, there is a new creation:
     the old order is gone and a new being is there to see.'
                        2 Cor 5:17 The New Jerusalem Bible

(Dragging back towards the topic. :)

Maybe this as a good hint: IE/Win ('the old order') is gone, and decent
standards compliant browsers ('a new creation') are 'there to see'. Use
them. Deploy them at your school. Provide feedback to the developers if
they are wanting in some regard. Write to webmasters when you find buggy
web sites that need IE/Win to "work".

None of this should change how dsbl.org do their business. None of this
will change how Microsoft does their business. But we will find we don't
need IE/Win far sooner than we imagined. (FWIW IE/Mac is frozen at 5.2.3,
no longer being developed, and almost never needed.)
