Yes, I've to confess here that I like Frans Bouma a lot... 
Don't think bad things 
but I like Frans's style mainly for a reason: he's
a Microsoft MVP but, unlike many other MVPs in the world, he's always opened to
criticize Microsoft when things are not well done (here
and here
his last 2 examples).
Normally all MVPs are in love with Microsoft and they're not always ready to
criticize the company when it comes out with bad decisions. Microsoft is a great
company with great guys but sometimes their decisions are not always so great...
Frans, never stop your "style" please...
