[nabs-l] watch out! it's another ridiculous update from Google

Fri May 24 11:04:10 UTC 2013

Hello,
First off I do not get this message about the browser being out of date 
with the latest version of firefox.  Secondly, the message I am seeing 
is that some, and I reiterate only some, of the features may not work 
correctly.  It said nothing about not being able to use them at all.  
Before anyone does any google bashing look at the message first when you 
log into your gmail accounts.  I use android on a day to day basis and 
have no problems with it all.
