LOL!


"And the users of Delphi replied: Your sideline selling expensive
corporate gizmos to amuse bored and gullible IT project managers? The
packages that let one annotate one's code with a popup note of what
the user supposed he required and compile it all into a two-way
convertible, config-controlled, colour UML diagram in 3D? The stuff
that has done almost as much for Computer Science as colonic
irrigation has for dentistry? "

I like this part :)

And it so happened that, after forty days and forty nights, or perhaps a
tad longer, a band of users of Delphi came marching down into the valley
of the Scotts.

And the Sons of Kahn muttered one unto another saying: Cripes, here
cometh the fruit loops.
