Hey all,

This is a question/request for incite/help. As tacky as it is, while I
am looking for feedback from anyone, a reply from Ann Harrison would be
appreciated.

Currently, I and another developer seem to have a difference of opinion
in the relevance and usefulness of implicit joins (SQL-89) and explicit
joins (SQL-92). While we try and preach explicitly joining, if for any
other reason, it is easier to read and follow, the differing developer
insists that explicit joins are the way "Everyone does it".

I would like some professional feedback on this. Unfortunately, our
rouge developer doesn't seem to accept ANYTHING as fact unless it comes
from Ann Harrison.

Thanks,
Jason
