I think the use of the term "aways" is what causes a lot of
controversy. To me "always" (as used by many in this group) really
means "usually" or "mostly" or at the very least it means the vast
majority or typical viewers. For example, www.foxnews.com "always
looks the same in everyone's browser". And for the overwhelimg
majority of people visiting the site (80%-90%?), it does in fact look
the same.

Using the term "always" meaning 100% of the time, it is obviously
impossible.

There is the verbatem meaning of always, and the implied meaning.
