I'm sure this is one of those "you say to-may-toe
and I say to-mah-toe" kinds of things, but we probably
ought to decide which it is.

I wouldn't even bring the subject up, but I hear that
a recent candidate for a job at Research Systems was
accused of having "a programming style like Fanning".
Let's just say it wasn't immediately obviously if this
was a complement or not. :-(

Apparently the distinction hinged on whether it is
better to use capital letters in a natural and eye-
pleasing way, or to sprinkle underscores all over
God's creation. We'll let Ben have it both ways,
since we don't want to confuse him. But what say
the rest of you?

Cheers,

David

P.S. Let's just say this is just the thing to stir
up the juices ahead of the big IEPA dinner on
the 31st! :-)
