Prove it, Tony. It seems to be in this newsgroup, at least from the
answer in this thread for and against case sensitivity.
As to some essay by an unknown person posted on the internet - that's
one person's opinion, hardly the majority. And quite frankly, I haven't
seen a darn thing this guy has done which gives me any reason to trust
his opinion more or less than anyone else. And people like K & R have
done a LOT more for programming than one Roedy Green.
And eve if ONE other person doesn't like it, that's hardly the majority.
Except in your mind.
You're a loser, Tony. Plain and simple.
