Javascript has been around for a long time, so, it must be the XML that
makes AJAX really, really dangerous?

Personally, I've always found that verbose, text-based data formatting
schemes gave me a spooky feeling of something really big, dark and
uncontrollable lying hidden just below the surface.

More seriously, are they thick enough to believe their own bs, or, are they
just making a cynical grab for the limelight?  Or, both?
