where the heck did that come from!!! i sure didn't say anything to that effect...
You did quite a while ago back in that "whose code do you use most" thread.
Just because it compiles to the same code does not make it VB-specific as you had implied in your original post. They aren't all the same thing, the results of the compilation are (and even then the compilers actually produce somewhat different code based on what the language in question supports).
Frankly, I have better things to waste my time on than you.
