in reply to more bracket chaos

I want to comment on an aspect of your writing style.

Throughout your writeup you are trying to anticipate critical thoughts your readers might have, putting them in their mouth as it were, so as to obviate the need for actually thinking them. The very subject is an example, and it goes on with

  • heretical possibly insane abuse of the xml format
  • a CGI system _ gasp _ yes handrolled
  • the heresy bit
  • lots of people are shaking their heads already
  • method in my madness

    ...and more.

    That makes you come across as insecure and presumptive at the same time, not an ideal setting for the reception of unconventional ideas.

      cause and effect. on my first foray into the monastary i was after help with some aspects of the system, and got a much less warm welcome than this one.

      this time im back just to give away my idea, i dont want anything back, im just a few weeks away from launching a full ecommerce site using this, and i know just how off the wall it is so im presenting as such, an oddity, perhaps if the peer review finally says so, an absurdity... either way these results are much better than last time :)
