I refer the intelligent reader to the 16+ posts recently mentioned which
indicate pretty clearly the lack of any "truth" in the alleged "sting".

This kind of attitude is naiive. Once a company has a monopoly, it is hard
to take back market share from them -- but it is by no means impossible.
Personally I would love to see a broader mix of browsers, with IE and
Mozilla having equal marketshare. In order to do that, right now I have to
fight for Mozilla. Any worthy goal that is not impossible is worth
fighting for. And so I fight.

Am I wasting my time? I don't think so. But who cares? I'm enjoying it.
