Why Intellisense is a Must

Matt Winkle has a humorous post regarding the length of Type names in the .NET Framework. This just proves two things to me:

Intellisense rocks!
I can no longer jibe Levy for the length of his type names.

This reminds me of another little (useless) factoid I’ve been meaning to blog about. While digging into the ADO.NET code with reflector (can’t really recall why) Levy and I came across what must be the greatest method name in the framework: DoomThisConnection(). This on the System.Data.ProviderBase.DbConnectionInternal class. It even has a property named _connectionIsDoomed! How great is that?
