While at one of the MVP summit parties I coaxed Deborah Kurata, Visual Basic MVP (and my local UG leader), into chatting with me about what kind of applications she builds for her customers, what her favorite features are and how long she's been using her language of choice. It was a fun, loud party and Deborah has a quiet voice but it's an interesting interview nonetheless. Check out Deborah's MVP bio.
