Ah, but we really have a hard time identifying it as humour,
because you can easily find this type of viewpoint expressed
seriously.

For example, I heard high up people in the DoD in charge of
information processing systems seriously claim that no one
would do any more programming any more, we would simply
put our "business models" into the 4GL tool and that would
be it :-)

Anyway, do us a favor, this is a strange field, and we cannot
conclude that just because somone is saying something ludicrous
that they intend it as a joke. So please add a smiley, otherwise
you are likely to be confused with people who really believe
some lunatic ideas :-)
