Of course it isn't....but when it's done as a "pitting one against the other" exercise....Are you serious? Rod himself referred to "the typed dataset" as an area where you and he disagree 100%. Yet you write books together, showing that it is possible to disagree technically without hostility. So, when he posted a reference to change tracking, I made a tongue-in-cheek response to the effect that while he and I might disagree with you for different reasons, your preference for Typed DataSets rules in April 2007... and you think I'm attacking you. Sheesh.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
