FWIW, Charles S. (sorry don't recall the exact spelling of his last name 
- something like Semonie), later publically regretted his development of 
this spawn of satan (my words). Supposedly it's officially deprecated at 
Microsoft, but it's so deeply intrenched in the ego mindset/culture of 
Microsoft that it will be long, if ever, before it no longer afflicts 
programmers.
