Needs Work
A lot of the pages display incorrectly using the Firefox browser.

Their jazzy new website
Their jazzy new website doesn't work all that well. Such is life in the roll out lane. I suspect their web tech is busier, right this minute, than a one legged man in a butt kicking contest.
Weird. Everything worked OK
Weird. Everything worked OK for me this AM using IE. The only thing that didn't was the local guide, something about a google map certificate mismatch. Just checked with Firefox, and it all seemed to work OK, even the local guide. There's a lot of Flash, though. Maybe it has something to do with the version?
I visited early this morning
I visited early this morning using Firefox and IE. It didn't render too well in either. Back again just now and it still has a problem down about the 'Commentary' section.
Also tried it just now with a fresh copy of Safari - same result.

Very Cool
I just logged on w/ Safari 3.1, updated every time Apple tells me to. I looked fantastic. Now, I haven't played around any, but it loaded quickly and easily. And, I can't say enough about how cool it looks.
Yeah, Dane and Elizabeth!
