Townhall is fixed

Townhall.com remodeled more than a year ago, as part of their merger with Salem Radio. They gave the site a spiffy new look and set up a way to get your own blog for free. It's one of the most venerable bits of the conservative web, and I think if any site is going to emerge as a Righty challenger to the Kos universe in terms of harnessing grassroots interest into political results, it's Townhall.

Unfortunately their redesign left much of the site unreadable for me, still stuck in Internet Explorer 6.0 and with a hard drive too full of baby pictures and T.G. Sheppard songs to bother upgrading to a new browser. (Besides, I hate it when people tell me "your browser sucks—you need to try this trendy thing." I'm a conservative. It ain't broke. Do the math.*) Most everything I wanted to see worked with 6.0. Townhall, though, didn't—the title bars would suddenly intrude in the middle of every screen and obscure the content—except for, curiously, Hugh Hewitt's blog . A while back in a Hot Air comment thread, I griped about that a little bit.

Well, Townhall's brass saw that and e-mailed me about the problem, and I sent them some screenshots. While I was gone here a couple of weeks ago, they did some code-wrangling and it all works now.

If you want to see Townhall.com—and read syndicated columnists like Michelle Malkin, Ann Coulter, Thomas Sowell, Marvin Olasky, a few others I could name and you might even have heard of...as well as bloggers like the lovely, the talented, the Mary Katharine Ham,—but had trouble reading the site, well, do go back and check them out. It's all better. Thanks to Chuck DeFeo, Matt Lewis, and the Townhall team.

*I did find one exception to this rule--here.
