I'm using the term 'visitors' in a more generic way than you are. My
'visitors' pay for the privilege of visiting the site I'm creating. The
site is a pay-for medical diagnostic service. As long as the medical
community is willing to pay to use the service, they can just as well
conform to the site's mandate--javascript:On. It's a non-issue.
