+1 That's a real eye-opening piece. In a nutshell :
"we decided that us meant "unsafe string" and s meant "safe string."
They're both of type string. The compiler won't help you if you assign
one to the other and Intellisense won't tell you bupkis. But they are
semantically different; they need to be interpreted differently and
treated differently"
