It is good however to see if people have an option on something. It is 
quite worrying when you get a blank look, it probably means that you 
have a 9 to 5er or that they know a lot less than they think. Being a 
programmer is much much more than just writing code. It tends to be a 
way of thinking, talking even. I have used the word 'blank' for 'empty' 
far too often and yesterday I 'initialised' a barometer.

You also don't want is someone who is obsessive / evangelical about 
something like editors.
