The Seed:
"Real programmers don't document their code.
It was hard to write, it should be hard to read."

Jason Fischer (jasonf@compumedia.com)
The Responses:
Yeah, and real programmers don't use LISP, or write specs, or eat quiche, yada yada.
That fact is any programmer that doesn't document their code is not a programmer at all, but an indifferent code-head.
A real programmer writes code that's so easy to read it becomes self-documenting, effortlessly maintainable and absolutely understandable. Anyone that thinks otherwise has never had to modify their own code or anyone else's.

Amen brotha.
-The Disciple ()
What a paranoid, childish attitude! 'Its my toys and if you don't play my way, I am going home.' Programmers, like architects, artists, designers, etc, simply build upon others work. Its communication that allows growth of the field as a whole. We learn best from each other.
