I disagree. These disciplines are a lot more closely related than people who
haven't done both realize.

An interesting case in point is the recent report about the spaghetti
structure of many web pages and other hypertext documents. It's not the kind
of mistake you'd be as likely to make if you were trained in software
engineering. ...RM
