I read some of his stuff a while back.
He is generally SO flexible that things end up in places where they don't belong...tables, columns, heads, hands....etc...
So no, *you* are not the idiot in this case....

I must say, that page comes across as a wall of words with a pretty picture of Buzzword Soup at the bottom ("Mmm! Tasty chunks!") I've never read the book, but this sample doesn't bode well.

We are on the side of Right: we will prevail!
Let us march boldly into the battle unafraid, and defeat the forces of Darkness!
We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in Chrome, we shall fight on the Edge and Opera, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the web, we shall defend our website, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight in the browsers, we shall fight on the style sheets, we shall fight in the HTML and in the codebehind, we shall fight in the server; we shall never surrender!*

Unless it's your father's tea.
Because, as the Beastie Boys told us, you have to fight for your right to Pa's tea.

Well, obviously.
We have to stop for tea breaks.
And I can't fight weekends, either.

Hear, hear!
This is a multi-dimensional truth. Even Havelock Vetinari, The Patrician of Ankh-Morpork, decreed, when setting up a committee of inquiry, that they would never rest, except for statutorily-mandated tea breaks.

I don't like tea. Is it OK if I break for coffee?

You can share mine.
Bring your own mug.

Thanks! - But is it Starbucks?
I take mine black and unsweetened and in very large volumes.

No way! I don't like their roast - it's too hard, makes the coffee taste burnt and bitter. And their water is too ... refined and "chemically". Our water comes is very, very soft because we're nearly all granite, with no local limescale - and that really makes a difference to the taste.

Interesting! I have had a couple of people mention to me that Starbucks outside of the USA is not of the same quality as here in the good ole States. I wonder: Is your Starbucks made from pure Arabica beans as it is here, or do they blend it with cheap and nasty Robusta beans? This will be interesting to research, as it will explain the difference. Robusta is very bitter and is often used as a filler in coffee blends to lower cost.
Long live Arabica!

Yeah, I tried it on one of my pages (just using "inspect element" and a bit of dynamic editing) and I am now looking for a excuse to use it somewhere - preferably in a error message!
