I hereby forbid anyone to use what I said above as a reason to prefer
"if a <> b"
over
"if not a = b"

There are many reasons to prefer one over the other, but performance
and/or program size are so far down the list, there isn't
enough paper
in the world to get to that part of the list. Even "I prefer <> to =
because <> is like a little diamond" is higher on the list.

This is the best post I have ever received from any Midrange.com mail list ever. By far.
