Okay, Stut, let's not make Friday the official "Flame Dan Brown"
holiday this week. I vote that it should be later in the year.

However, it should also be noted that my development is never done
on a production server attached to the Internet, for one; and on my
development machine, E_NOTICE is always enabled. I just fail to see
the benefit in alerting visitors to the site that there may have been
something overlooked at some point.

Why would it alert visitors? You don't have display errors set to on for
a production server do you? *EEEEEEEEEK*. Send it to a log file. The
reason it's good to enable notices on a production server is because
your visitors are like a horde of testers, they'll probably hit every
nook and cranny of your code that you might have missed during testing.

Cheers,
Rob.
