About this beer (including text probably copied from the brewery website)

I love drinking Guinness - it is the only beer I routinely consume but not to excess. I may be wrong but I have heard that it is lower calories than most beers and I know the dark color and antioxidants should be good for my health.

Today I wanted to write about Guinness beer on a friend's website. I needed some information about the beer, wikipedia had some nice information and a link to your website. So I went and thought I'd check it out and perhaps share some of this information with my friend with a link to your site.

I was horrified to discover that the Guinness website is using some strange code that doesn't seem to be compatible with my computer and browser. I don't want to know what pages that end with .aspx are supposed to be doing... I just want to access the information!

Yes, I can see the gorgeous black border and the menu but when I click on any menu item (except the "accessibility" page) the page tries to load in the window you have created but doesn't show anything... just a white box!!!

Guinness, what on God's beautiful green Earth graced by dark ruby black Guinness beer have YOU done?!?

I can only suspect that you have made the error of using some proprietary and restrictive software code to share the greatness of Guiness with other people via your website! This is a major mistake!

I only use Free Software and Free Operating Systems. Free is being used here in the same sense as freedom and free speech. See: http://gnu.org and http://fsf.org

Is Guinness purposefully against me enjoying my freedoms? If this continues then I am going to have to find another beer to drink and to prescribe for others to enjoy. I certainly can't recommend your site to my fellow freedom and beer loving friend!

First Obama and now Guinness... my life is being ruined and my freedoms taken away!

Is this a conspiracy? How shameful that I can't even lament or celebrate over my favorite pint without being a sell-out to my own principles and ethics!

Please let me know as soon as you have fixed the problem with your site. Until then, I guess I'll have to start trying the brews my friend was raving about and break with my tradition of only drinking Guinness!! Maybe I'll just make the switch to a glass of a full bodied Italian dark red wine instead.
