standard and it's certainly not an M$ invention. So what "standard" are you
wanting to dump? Delimiters I assume, but delimiters clarify code and
decrease errors, IMHO. And, BTW, I am certainly not an "MS-Sheep".
Someone already pointed out I was responding to Stephen Russell. He offered
a 'situation' where variable naming based on case might be used, citing it
may be 'company standard' to do so. That is what prompted me to respond.
I believe I'm in complete agreement with you regarding case-sensitivity in
source code (and file names in a OS file system). I think it's a 'stupid'
standard that should be changed. Delimiters for blocks of code, whether
they be braces, 'words' (IF/ENDIF), or tabs are not 'stupid' IMO.
The MS-sheep thing is a semi-joke regarding those who love to tote the
MS-hype/marketing/vision/blah blah blah. Mr. Russell really loves .Net and
reminds us of that frequently. So he is the MS-sheep I'm referring to.
I apologize for the confusion.

Nope. Bad, stupid, error-prone standards are to be changed, not followed.
Why would even suggest such a thing? Oh.... MS-sheep... nevermind...
