And btw, your site looks fine in Safari...not much different to how it looks in Chrome in fact.
You do know your browser reviews link is broken, right?

There's an old saying "You catch more flies with honey than vinegar" that you might like to ponder. I don't think telling people they are idiots is a great way to get them to change...
