They only article can find about this is here:

Hadn't seen that, but this one
<http://blogs.wsj.com/biztech/2008/06/06/men-write-code-from
-mars-women-write-more-helpful-code-from-venus/> is about
how women write more helpful code (better comments).

I believe Reese made the pretty code comment because I'd
teased Zack about his work around and said, "so, basically,
you think conditional comments in the HTML are ugly?"

When I've repeated that conversation, a lot of people agree:
conditional comment hacks are ugly.
