Oh please. It says "supported", implying others are "not supported". It
doesn't say "others are blocked". I've accessed the site many times with
unsupported browsers and got what I was looking for, I certainly wasn't
blocked.

Then again, if we can rightfully point out the folly of govt spin doctors
with their "won't someone please think of the children!" and related
over-reaching hysteria, it's only fair we respond to them in the same
hyperventilated style, yes?
