DX. At last year's TriAda there was a great reuse tutorial given by JP Rosen. 
  . He also wrote an article in CACM last year concerning Ada components.  His
  . basic premise is that we need to work more like a EE does.  When a EE is
  . designing a circuit, he will design for components that already exist
  . (adjusting his wonderful design to use as much off the shelf material as
  . possible).  Most programmers (myself included) tend to write the software
  . ourselves, because we don't trust other people's code.

There was also a presentation by Don Reifer in which he claimed that "the only
true reuse is black-box reuse..." (or so I paraphrase).  I agree with this
