Ya know... if my house just got trashed by a friggin HURRICANE, I'm not going to give a damn about what web browser I'll have to use to fill out a FEMA claim. Hell... Lots of people will have lost their computers in the storm anyway, so they'll have to fill out the form at a shelter or something.

All jokes aside, Why the hell can't our fvcking government handle what every other company online does? Is it really that hard to make a page that is compatible with other browsers??

Nice to see our government has a handle on technology.

Need to read more, that program was for their internal usage, not originally meant for use external use, so they didnt see a need to code it for others. They are changing it, but felt the need to open it up first.

Hell the thing I find funniest out of all this is MSNBC was the one to report it.
