Tim Bray compares it to ASCII. Does anyone discuss ASCII anymore? Once in a while, maybe, in the context of Unicode or other character encodings that are supplanting it.

There will always be arguments, but there will always be (hopefully) beer. Someday I'll actually make it to one of these conferences, and we'll have beer.
