Being a user experience professional, it makes me HAPPY to read this excerpt again and again. Bill Gates gets such a bad rap for his products, when in reality he tried to make it better for all of us.

Getting data from XML
To gain access to the data that we want to use we need to traverse the XML DOM (Document Object Model). To traverse the XML DOM we use the XML object properties like firstChild and childNodes. If you have used the XML object before then I’m sure you have created statements that looked something like this:
myXML.childNodes[1].childNodes[3].firstChild.nodeValue;
Can you tell what data this statement is referring to without dissecting the XML structure first?...
