I personally disagree on the latter point.  However, in private e-mail, John
and I have been having a much more rational (and satisfying!) discussion on
the topic. :-)

The tone, as I later found out, wasn't intended, so I don't particularly
feel as hurt as I was.  But the Programming with Dick and Jane bit just made
be blow a gasket.  The ORIGINAL reply to that was much longer, and a heck of
a lot more scathing, to say the least.  :)

Then I realized, "You know -- it's just not worth it."  We're arguing over
personal preferences here.  But I was still angry enough to not just let it
go myself.

So in the end, I too need to apologize.
