            <description>&lt;p&gt;I was looking at &lt;a href="http://www.crockford.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Douglas Crockford's&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://blog.360.yahoo.com/douglascrockford" target="_blank"&gt;360 blog&lt;/a&gt; today and came across a &lt;a href="http://blog.360.yahoo.com/blog-TBPekxc1dLNy5DOloPfzVvFIVOWMB0li?p=814" target="_blank"&gt;hilarious quote&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;blockquote&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Do you write regularly for any publications in this field? &lt;/em&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Just the blogs.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;In researching the book, did you come across any surprising facts, figures, or statistics that the press might be interested in?&lt;/em&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: #e0e0e0"&gt;Surprisingly, facts have very little to do with web development.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;p&gt;Douglas Crockford is simply amazing and is the original author of &lt;a title="expat XML parser" href="http://expat.sourceforge.net/" target="_blank"&gt;expat&lt;/a&gt; (one of the first XML parsing libraries), as well as &lt;a title="JavaScript verifier" href="http://www.jslint.com/" target="_blank"&gt;JSLint&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a title="JavaScript Minifier" href="http://javascript.crockford.com/jsmin.html" target="_blank"&gt;JSMin&lt;/a&gt;, and &lt;a title="JavaScript Object Notation" href="http://www.json.org/" target="_blank"&gt;JSON&lt;/a&gt; (one of the primary components of AJAX).&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;P.S. Bonus points for any one identifying the blog post title source.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://nimblecoder.com/blog/aggbug/64.aspx" width="1" height="1" /&gt;</description>
