I think I have a workaround - disabling Javascript globally seems to have 
solved the problem.  I also tried disabling Javascript just for the 
slashdot.org domain but the crashes still happened ... which adds weight to 
the thought that the cause may be related to a banner-ad, or some other 
off-site content.

If this solution holds up then I'll start whitelisting domains I really need 
Javascript for (which is probably the right security stance anyway).
