I didn't read the whole thing yet but it is very funny. Since most languages don't have macro expansion (&) like VFP I bet there is nothing in there about that. A guy could really reak havoc using "&" alot. For example never actually type out important variables. Allways build them in a string and then use & to get to them. Like

lcVar1 = 'lcImp'
lcVar2 = 'ortantVar'

lcVar3=lcVar1+lcVar2

&lcVar3 = 'some value'

This will making searching for the variable impossible.

Also, while I was reading the article I could sware that some programmers before me had followed the advice given especially about commenting.
