Not unless I am too (discuss, writing on one side of the paper only). 

I think that anyone who can write HTML can write XSL; they are both
declarative, and use identical syntax. The odd man out is Javascript,
which requires you to learn how to write computer programs, rather
than describing your output. To me, thats a big shift in
consciousness.
