Netscape was Firefox? Somehow I never learned that. I fuckin loved the little space animation when a page was loading.

That's because it's not true. Firefox was first called firebird for a brief time... Otherwise its most closely related to the Mozilla browser... Netscape and mosaic aren't even related to each other... I don't know what this guy is smoking.
