    Being new to WPF, I've been using the excellent Lutz Reflector[^] to browse through some APIs in .NET 3.0 (in particular, some WPF APIs) and found this goofy gem. Not so much a "horror" as it is a "what the heck?" Thought it worthy of posting here: Obviously.png[^] I'm sure there's some deep technical reason for this, probably related to virtual methods vs. pure abstract methods. Just thought the name was kind of funny, plus it ends up calling IsEmpty. ;P

      Have you ever emptied out a pail of water and stood the pail back up only to come back to the pail in 5 minutes and there is still water in it. It's empty, but it's not obviously empty. :-D :cool:

        I like the one below it. MayHaveCurves:-D It sounds salacious.

        Deja View - the feeling that you've seen this post before.

                  Maybe it means, "is empty to the untrained eye, but we know it's really not"?
