We'll loop detect to end the mutual admiration society, but thanks from you makes my day :) I just tweeted a pointer to "Doing Terrible Things" and suggested people read all of the "Falsehoods Programmers Believe". I want "Falsehoods as a Service" - outsourced paranoia.

If you want a high quality of discussions, some people are going to have to be deprived of their voice to make that happen, either through moderation or selective membership.
