Worth Repeating
"It's absolutely deplorable that this country treats ideology and intellectual debate the way it does. But: we owe to this its ironies. Its tolerance. Its decision not to take too seriously what in other countries have proved fatal challenges. It is my conviction that had the infinite rhetorical genius of Adolf Hitler been tested on Hyde Park Corner, people would have said, 'Ah, come off it,' and walked away." -- George Steiner

- Why not ASP.Net?Lullabot has an interesting critique on the ASP.Net experience from the viewpoint of a former ASP.Net developer. I've been fending off developers touting this Ford Pinto of the web programming world since starting my current job and this post is going into my arsenal against them.
