Nice article...but -

I can't help but ask - why use VBScript when you can use an actual full-featured language? You know - something with actual types, error-handling, etc...?

I mean - in the old days where putting together a full fledged VB6 was a PITA, okay, I could see it. But simple console apps are just as simple to put together, and are oh so very much cleaner to put together....

All right fine - I like VBScript too....But it's almost invariably garbage code because it allows itself to have no form whatsoever....
