How to raise money

[eric.t.f.bat]

Here's one way to raise some cash for this: get the guy(s) who invented PHP to sit on a chair, then sell waterlogged sponges to all the people who've ever used PHP. As they throw the sponges, let them shout things like "pick a naming standard and stick to it, you bastards!", or "read the fsking Dragon Book before you inflict your high-school-level language design skills on the rest of the world!". You'd raise a mint.
