And now it is certain that the circle is complete on our quarterly discussion of the evils of anything that isn't unstyled static HTML. Perhaps it would be prudent for someone to gather together the permalinks for each of these threads so that the next time the subject comes up we can save everyone's electricity, time, and bandwidth by sending those URLs to the OP and moving onto more productive matters. This conversation reminds me of a religious debate. Neither side will convince the other and both sides have the same responses to the same arguments. Instead, the archives of previous instances of this argument can be referenced and curious parties can make their own decisions based on those archives.
