Piccolo - you are right, Object Oriented skills outweigh Top Down skills in today's marketplace, however I still think they matter (at least in part). Antonio - I also see your point about some programmers not having alot of "business sense" - such is the challenge of IT. And Gustavo - yes, you are right curiosity and an inquisitive spirit are absolutely necessary for programming success.

Developers need to have that spirit to learn more about what they are using to construct their software / products (APIs, frameworks... current/new technology in general). Maintenance / support guys should be able to constantly ask themselves "what if" or just have the desire to explore the system beyond what they already know. In my experience, I've found this inquisitive spirit very helpful in every project of my professional life. What about curiosity / inquisitive spirit?
