List<StuffThatCSharpDoesBetterThanJava> loads = new List<StuffThatCSharpDoesBetterThanJava>();

[eek]

List<StuffThatCSharpDoesBetterThanJava> loads = new List<StuffThatCSharpDoesBetterThanJava>();

surely that would be

var loads = new List<StuffThatCSharpDoesBetterThanJava>();

Although personally I curse resharper every time it suggests it.

I only use var when it's too bloody complicated to work out what I'm getting back (Linq). Mebbe I should be more liberal.

Java really doesn't do implicit types. The reason I added it was to show one of the advantages of C# in the fact it can handle implicit types and conversions without pain.

Personally I hate them but then again I don't like Linq that much full stop. I'm very old school give me stored procedures any day.
