Today boss comes in and says, "Seen pcmag's story about php? says it is
bad." Argh:

What's the scoop on Larry Seltzer anyway. You here, Larry? His review is
rather 1-sided, negative. Not good for free software's encroachment into
the corporate zone. Of course the points he raises are all true and widely
known. He mentions only one strength.
I don't think Larry has actually been in the trenches doing real work on the
web. Either that or he is/was paid to do it with Micro$oft ASP or Allaire's
Cold Fusion. Maybe he is on the payroll of one of these? It's a
possibility that should be investigated.
Thanks for nothing, Larry Seltzer.
Cheers,
MD
