Please fix Silverlight and the web page so I can run it on Firefox 3 and a PowerPC running Mac OS 10.4.11, I keep on getting the stupid message from the page : www.microsoft.com/.../default.aspx I have installed version 1.03xxx of Silverlight 2x ! PS: I used to do Debugger's for the Macintosh in the 90's

We have seen again and again how research positively impacts the economy and makes the U.S. competitive. We need to become advocates for both basic AND applied research that will improve our quality of life, health, and connect us with scientists and communities worldwide.
