One, I didn't say that. And two, I write under my real name. It's pretty easy to find out how much experience I have.

As a person with "more" experience, I went through a phase of writing lots of comments. Obviously, given how much I comment here, I like writing. But as I said elsewhere in this discussion, comments have become for me a last resort. I'd rather put the information I'm trying to convey almost anywhere else. Variable names, method names, improved interfaces, better object relationships, doc strings, test code, test names, commit comments, or my colleagues' heads.
