Read this article on Embedded.com and decide for yourself." I think this article didn't describe someone really 'quirky' though - it was someone who didn't really want to work.

    i have no reson to find a flaw with un-commented code, if you are a good programmer then comments just get in the way and annoy the hell out of you, uncommented code appears more logical and is just easier to read.
