In the above example, your list items will be blue not read, as they both have the exact same value, and the blue is declared later.

The SOPA legislation would make you have tons of crap days, as it would give the US government the ability to turn on / off websites/pages at their will.

Just thinking that if everyone pulls their content on the 18th I’m going to have a really crap day. :)
