This makes me sad. Not because I don't like grid. But because two weeks ago I found out that a very senior person in the company has a computer running IE11, and will not let IT upgrade her machine.

She recently discovered that one of the company's web sites doesn't look right in IE11, and shit ran downhill into my lap. I checked the logs, and yep... she's the only IE11 machine to hit any of the web sites in a year.

I spent a day and a half downgrading the site from CSS grid to Flexbox only to discover that once I found an old machine in a closet that has IE11 on it that I could test with that IE11 doesn't fully support Flexbox, either!

Solution: Each building on campus has its own IP address. Connections from her building get a table version.
