I've been using Opera for a few years now. It's the best.

Are we about to be hijacked?

What security issue?! Should we be on the look out for flying shoes?

What's wrong with Firefox? I've been using Firefox for 3 years without any problems.

There are a number of things about Firefox I don't care for, not the least of which is problems created when editing things here and at the ATR site.
