Late last night, between midnight and 1:30, somebody (MS? probably) dumped a huge IE logo on Netscape's front lawn (a metal shell, apparently, deep enough to stand up on its own). They probably expected that we wouldn't notice until morning, and wouldn't be able to get equipment to move it until 11:00 or so, and some press cameras would come by in the meantime; we wouldn't be able to bring legal action, 'cause we wouldn't have any proof, and we'd just look whiny. Well. Needless to say, MS was dumb: they forgot that we're *here* at midnight! Somebody spotted it, and, rather than waste effort trying to get rid of the logo, they decided to slap MS in the face with it instead. (Figuratively. :-) They gathered people to help, and they tipped over the IE logo so that it was lying on its back, spraypainted "Netscape Now" on the side facing the street...and then carried over our 7-foot-tall statue of Mozilla (Netscape's Godzillaoid mascot) and stood it up on top of the IE logo. So now we have Mozilla standing on top of the defeated IE (with his thumb up and a grin on his face), and people are wandering by and taking pictures; it got covered in by local papers and TV, and I've been told Reuters picked it up. Not the sort of thing we'd publicize on purpose, 'cause it is a little childish...but they started it! :-) -- A Netscape employee -*******-
