Bring Down IE6, a campaign for .net that evolved from an article I wrote for the magazine, has hit a nerve. There have been lots of positive responses, a flurry of activity on the likes of Twitter, and a few dissenting voices.

Of the last of those, most have—thankfully—been very sane. A couple of people have acussed the campaign of being too guerilla or being too focussed on devs, and there’s a claim regarding the risk that some people might not bother reading anything on the site and axe IE6 support entirely from their sites. (Note, however, that the home page clearly states “Ensure sites work in IE6” and “Provide an upgrade notice for IE6 users”.)

However, there’s always the odd crazy person lurking, and I had a gem in my in-box today. This brought back a little nostalgia, since an earlier incarnation of Revert to Saved printed stupid emails from stupid people, containing stupid comments about what I’d written. Therefore, without further ado, witness what happens when someone spectacularly misses the point:

That email’s just so full of wrong, that it’s hard to know where to start, isn’t it?
