Sadly this is how many VB guys think. I'm a C# guy and I honestly don't care, it all compiles to the same MSIL anyway and intellisense makes it easy to write either. Seriously if my keyboard was ever logged, all it'd reveal is txtI<tab> if(is<tab>) { refre<tab>; One reason VB has such a stigma attached to it is because it's common to see it written by non-developers, particularly lurking in excel as some background macro. Anyone can butcher any language - it's just a matter of preference. Anyone who touts a language so strongly has clearly lost the purpose of having it and is not worth debating with.
