[GLLUG] New GLLUG Site, first pass

clean URLs should be:

1) /story/welcome-new-gllug-website/ (note trailing slash) not
story/welcome-new-gllug-website.html

2) you have 2 meta content types. Only the first one is needed (and it
must be first inside head).

3) I belive the prefered way to do favicon is like this (in this order):
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/images/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />
	<link rel="icon" type="image/png" href="/images/favicon.png" />

4) if you ever want to make the site look nice you will need
	<!--[if IE 6]><link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/ie6.css"
type="text/css" media="screen"/><![endif]-->
	<!--[if IE 7]><link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/ie7.css"
type="text/css" media="screen"/><![endif]-->

	<!--[if IE 8]><link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/ie8.css"
type="text/css" media="screen"/><![endif]-->

cuz IE sucks. Though we could probebly dope support for IE 6.
