Ever wondered why every single web browser out there claims to be Mozilla,
even though they might not have anything to do with Mozilla?

And John's curiosity was satisfied
And there was much rejoicing

And now to rms the father, Linus the son and Tux the wholly penguin

We will now sing Hymn 315 during which the beadle will pass among you. 
No foreign coins please

Go to, let us go down, and there confound their user agent strings, that  
they may not understand one another's content.

Render that in Mozilla that that is Mozilla's

Then did he raise on high the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch, saying, 
"Bless this, O Lord, that with it thou mayst blow thine enemies to tiny 
bits, in thy mercy." And the people did rejoice and did feast upon the 
lambs and toads and tree-sloths and fruit-bats and orangutans and 
breakfast cereals ... Now did the Lord say, "First thou pullest the Holy 
Pin. Then thou must count to three. Three shall be the number of the 
counting and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou 
not count, neither shalt thou count two, excepting that thou then 
proceedeth to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the 
number of the counting, be reached, then lobbest thou the Holy Hand 
Grenade in the direction of thine foe, who, being naughty in my sight, 
shall snuff it."

And so was the evil rabbit monster destroyed, by the Holy Hand Grenade 
of Antioch, and King Arthur and hes brave soldiers could carry on theyer 
  Holy Quest, which would lead them to dark caves and a text, which was 
carved in stone, and informed them about The Castle of AAaaaargghh.
