Yes. Rogue robots are getting more and more annoying. There is an arms race between the robots and the anti-robot defenses in Fossil. At this point in time, the defenses in place are adequate. But you never know when a new robot will come out and I'll have to come up with some new defense. There are also other user-interface features that use javascript because the overwhelming majority of web users have javascript enabled, and the interface really is much nicer when you use javascript. Really. -- D.
