I'd like to respond to this, but I can't figure out what it means. I was talking about the fact that behind all of that eye candy are systems that designed to invade your privacy and lose your identity (that is, identity theft), and the inevitable reaction to it is going to remove the last chance at any freedom. Prepare to be enslaved! >And some utility things are standard ones (ISO_20022 for example) for now. What utilities have to do with eye candy, privacy, and freedom, beyond my ability to figure out. >Ada in old days had the same face for hard c/c++ people, btw. Face? We're talking about facts, not "faces". If the facts were different, the conclusion would be different. I can certainly see reasons why people might want to use XML in program-to-program communication, but it only makes sense when the programs are created by different entities. (And I've never believed in that as a successful model of anything.) Randy.
