[ILUG] Offtopic - Stephen Hawking & DCU.

[Daniel Goldsmith]

Hi all,

Very offtopic, but I felt some comment could be forthcoming.

http://www.dcu.ie/~nolanb/gr17.htm - the homepage for the conference
at which Stephen Hawking is giving his feverishly anticipated speech
on Blackholes.

Now, considering the very well known physical constraints Prof.
Hawking operates under, I thought I'd give the site a shot under Lynx
- no dice. A 'USE FRAMES" placeholder.

I fed the page to the W3C validation service - Failed - not even a
valid Doctype declaration.

Considering Ireland's glorious self-image re technology and the
internet, and DCU's place at the center of it, isn't all this just a
*tad* reprehensible?

2c.
