I think I understand the problem...for some reason you think XML is
like...something concrete, something that can actually be definable in
some unique, unchanging way.

XML isn't REALLY anything, I mean you're yammering the fuck on about
it like it's some incredibly complex uber dependant one of a kind
unfuckwithable form that we all couldn't live without.
Essentially XML is like a cheap cardboard box...yes, we need boxes to
put stuff in and things wouldn't work so well without them...but it's
a fuckin box fer Christ sake, ANYONE can make a fuckin box. Just
cause you give yer box a fancy name and a lot of techno babble doesn't
change the fact that IT IS JUST A FUCKIN BOX. o_O
....tha fuck.
