yes, but that is life. you must adapt to the world

JavaScript is a client-side language, it generates no bandwith in

Javascript, and it is
actually quite useful to do Flash-less games and animations for example.
Exactly! guys this isn't 1994 and people expect to use dynamic websites,

etherpad and the wiki. (Hint, hint.)

Javascript and static web pages are compatible (using DOM and/or
document.write is not mandatory).
You could also use static html forms for a comment system, though frankly
I'd rather use javascript to achieve the same end.
