You will probably discount this given my own political views, but I did not in fact know Julie Lerman is a lefty. She looks like one, I'll concede that. And yeah, Vermont. Still, I read her every month in MSDN Magazine, have both editions of her EF books, and have watched some of her videocasts. Not once has she mentioned politics. Maybe you got into conversation at an MVP event or something and so know things I don't. Maybe your own views set her off ;-) This is priceless. Yeah, "she looks like a liberal"....
You didn't know who Andrew Brust was either.... <s>
