Tabbage is the bomb!

It took me a long time to even realize that was an option.

I switched to Firefox (long ago) from MIE because of three things:

Better security, freedom from pop-ups, etc., and tabs.

MIE is just now catching up.

At first, I
found it somewhat annoying. That was a long time ago and I haven't
looked back. I'm usually working on four or five things at the same
time, so five windows each with 5-6 tabs keeps me reasonably organized.

I have Firefox set to automatically open up 10 tabs (of my favorite
web sites) each morning at start-up, and then I go from there.

I only rarely open a new window.

I looooove tabbage.

Why "liberal" doesn't quite fit:
"In the short term, this reflects the failure of the Republican Party to secure its hard-won victories. In
the longer term, this may provide a new opportunity for the heirs to authentic liberalism - today's conservatives -
as they often thrive when lovers of big government, by whatever name they go by, overreach."

"The main proponents of 'universal coverage' want to throw more money at the current health care system,
which strikes me as unwise. I believe that the 'universal coverage' mantra is dysfunctional for the same
reason that 'more money for public schools' is a dysfunctional mantra for education. When your current
approach is digging you into a hole, the sensible thing to do is not to dig faster. It is to stop digging."
