    Time for a new poll.

    The best code is written by programmers drinking...

    a. Mountain Dew

    b. Pepsi

    c. Coca-Cola

    d. Mountain Dew Code Red

    e. Jolt Cola

    f. beer

    g. RC Cola and eatin' a Moon Pie

    h. Cowboy Neal's bath water

    Whether this poll should be subdivided into open and closed source code I leave as an intellectual exercise for the reader.
