Actually Bergamot, I do now understand why you so badly misinterpret me.
You *have* to read every single word I utter because I can - at any time
- suddenly and without warning throw in a sensible thought.

I rather liked old Richard. I will see if his kf has any beer in the
fridge. I bet he comes down for a few schooners when he gets bored with
all you sensible people, I reckon a few rounds with a dipstick to see
who can drink who under the table might be attractive to anyone with a
bit of get up and go.

Richard, you cannot make some important general argument out of a site
that has not done its very best by frames. The Engish translation of the
Aritotelian quasi logical fault of this is translated roughly as
follows:

Do not base much on straw men.

Yes but if you are employing server-side then there is no need for
frames in the first place. Frames was an early *hack* to modularize
webpage development when server-side scripting was being developed and
both expensive and not widely available. Again with my favorite analogy,
why would a lumberjack cling to his ax after the development of the
chainsaw?

Because it is easy to carry and much easier to sharpen and is much less
dangerous. Any other analogies?

Obviously you've never chopped down a tree with an ax.
