Hey! Another GreaseMonkey fan. I have contributed a couple of scripts
to that repository of scripty greatness and have written a couple of
dozen more for my own personal use. GreaseMonkey completely changed how
I use the Web, and I've been using the Web since 1994 (actually, it's
been using me for the majority of that time).

That said, I believe that Brother Jon has made it clear that he is not  
a technophile, and even some heavy-duty technophiles find GreaseMonkey  
a bit daunting to grasp what the heck it is and what it's doing.

I did not find anything about IE that would help anybody, under any  
circumstances. As a Web developer, I believe that Microsoft should be  
fined many hundreds of billions of dollars for all the Web developers'  
and end-users' time that their turd-in-the-punch-bowl of a browser has  
wasted.
