XML is based on the SGML printer control tag markup "language."

No $170,000 for you (which is low anyways if you are any good.)

Cuz' we buy lots of BMW's.

Since when did liberals do anything else except tear down Western Civilization?

If you are going to use indentation you shouldn't need all those parentheses.

"- Writing a line of code is done as a last resort when all attempts to avoid it have failed."

Yes, God forbid that we automate some clerk's job out of existence.

"If you create a programming language through which to solve the needs of your scenario, then the article simply makes no sense at all any more."

Which you can do most easily in LISP.

Mod this up.
