Any sanctioned use of IE6 in any organization is a good argument for workplace drug testing, 'cause they're high as a kite if they think that's a good idea.

As a government agency they're not only wasting our money, but putting our publicly-funded systems at unnecessary risk.

Microsoft themselves have spent millions of dollars trying to convince people to move away from IE6 - they've even made a web site to explain why it's necessary:

When a browser's own maker tells you to stop using it, it's time to board the cluetrain.
