Jetlag and Attributes

I don't really want to have one of those blogs were I regail you with details of my recent travel exploits, the fun I had being folded into economy class across the Atlantic, details of my family and friends, what I think of sharing a Shuttle Bus to the airport and back.. I mean, let's face it, you don't really care that it's taken me a week to shift the 8 hour time difference and get back into a routine.

The real point is that my brain is still working at about 60% capacity (that's of my own brain, not an average human brain) and so it's likely I'm still talking nonsense a large part of the time.

However, even when I was operating at full speed, I had problems getting the concept of C# "Attributes" clear in my head. It seems strange to pepper perfectly logical sourcecode with these weird things in square brackets.

Do you "grok" Attributes? Do you use them? If so, what for? Let me know, as I'm working on the Attributes portion of the C# docs right now and want to make sure the information that most C# programmers need is in there.

And now it's time to sneak another little piece of UK chocolate..
