Colin James III (The Rt Rev'd) (cjames) fumed and spluttered:

: Truly words are at a loss to describe what a bad man Robert C Martin 
: really is.  May his legion articles and books forever be a gauge as to 
: what is ordinary, what is ill-bred, what is ignoble, and what is not to 
: be avoided at all costs in the field of object-oriented technology.

Yes, I suppose that words, not being sentient objects, _would_ be 
at a loss to do much of anything beyond merely existing.

And if Martin's writings are "not to be avoided at all costs", what 
are the costs at which they _should_ be avoided, and where can one
find said legion of articles and books at non-avoidance costs should
one wish to not avoid them?

Finally, how can articles and books (non-sentient objects again) be 
"ill-bred"? Are there ill word-breeders amongst us? Ill-word breeders?
Just how does one bring up well-adjusted and well-behaved words? Word
breeders NEED to know.
