A few years ago Dmitry alone was having troubles with the screen freezing
on landru, but not on minidru.  We thought it might be due to interactions
between the latest versions of Firefox and his use of the zoom feature
in the Mac OS X Accessibility System Preferences.
At that point, I left the newest version that worked for him, 3.6.28, as
"Firefox" and over the years installed the newest versions of Firefox,
during flex engineering of course, as "Firefox ", e.g.,
drwxr-xr-x@  4 nobody  nobody      136 Aug 15 22:52 Firefox 31.app
drwxr-xr-x   3 nobody  nobody      102 Apr 10  2012 Firefox.app
Since Kaike discussed this at the observer's meeting at the time,
I thought all the observers knew about it.  Apparently not.
I've renamed the old version to "Firefox 3.6.28" and the new one to "Firefox".
drwxr-xr-x@  4 nobody  nobody      136 Aug 15 22:52 Firefox.app
drwxr-xr-x   3 nobody  nobody      102 Apr 10  2012 Firefox 3.6.28.app
