Another cracking quote on XML from C. M. SPERBERG-MCQUEEN ( a member of
the technical staff of the World Wide Web Consortium)
"In the wild (that is, in documents, reports, and program
data structures as they are encountered in daily life),
information takes forms rather different from third normal
form."
Yup, that's right, "information takes forms rather different from third
normal form". Don't worry about the fact that third normal form is just
a way of rearranging true propositions in a lossless way. No siree,
because that would make it _totally_ different information. Good grief,
how does this stuff get published.
