Just realize that in doing so, you're going to take a performance hit. This
only matters of course if you are planning on handling serious traffic.
It's not good practice to have every file parsed, unless you plan on
embedding code in every page. Even so, it's best to deal with it gracefully
& allow yourself the ability to cache static pages. IMHO...
