I think if you look at the comments on that article, he's agreed that's an error and shouldn't be there. > but what i'm really interested in is people's experience in > switching over > to and using this kind of handler: pitfalls, gotchas, etc. or is it > really > as easy and simple as all these online articles i've read about it > claim?
