I'm not sure if it's a good idea to link to an article without even 
having read it all myself. But I skimmed through it and looks like it's 
a *great* one.

(REALLY long, you have been warned)

"You're about to see the mother of all flamewars on internet groups 
where web developers hang out. The IE 8 team is in the process of making 
a decision that lies perfectly, exactly, precisely on the fault line 
smack in the middle of two different ways of looking at the world. It's 
the difference between conservatives and liberals, it's the difference 
between "idealists" and "realists," [...] And there's no solution. But 
it will be really, really entertaining to watch, because 99% of the 
participants in the flame wars are not going to understand what they're 
talking about."
