  "Anyone who argues in favor of one language over another in a purely
technical manner (i.e., who ignores the dominant business issues)
exposes themself as a techie weenie, and deserves not to be heard."

I wouldn't argue that the point the person wants to express doesn't have
some truth in it but imho anyone who talks in such a condescending tone
about "tech weenies" when they present logically sound arguments is
someone who deserves not to be heard.
