Joel Maupin - ORM: The good, the great, and the ugly

Join Joel Maupin as he discusses his view of the pros and cons of ORMs. ORMs or Object Relational Mapping are a class of tools that empower a programmer to easily work with the structures of a relational database as objects in code. As we all know "with great power comes great responsibility", and these tools are not immune to the leaky abstraction problem. Since this is a lunch talk and we all have too many things bouncing around in our brains the talk will be (hopefully) entertaining and geared around examples in C# and postgresql. Joel says his mission is to move us all to postgresql against our will because he cannot afford the licensing costs for MSQL.
