I don't want to make this a slight against .NET programmers. It's no surprise to see all the references to .NET and Microsoft I know we have hit this topic a bit in the past, with various blog posts.

It's not surprising because so many, especially those that attend conferences and the like, are doing government contract work. Just my thoughts Also, the tone is a bit odd to me.
