Nobody in their right mind would recommend that.  

*BUT - AND PLEASE READ THIS* - IF YOU ACCEPT AN INVALID CERTIFICATE
***YOU *ARE* DISABLING SSL***.  You are disabling it by breaking it - IT
IS NO LONGER PROTECTING YOU.

IF YOU ACCEPT AN INVALID CERTIFICATE ***YOU *ARE* DISABLING SSL***. 

IF YOU ACCEPT AN INVALID CERTIFICATE ***YOU *ARE* DISABLING SSL***. 
IF YOU ACCEPT AN INVALID CERTIFICATE ***YOU *ARE* DISABLING SSL***. 
IF YOU ACCEPT AN INVALID CERTIFICATE ***YOU *ARE* DISABLING SSL***.
