Nullable<>, SQL NULL, and reference null (what do you mean?)

An interesting post on Wesner Moise's blog shows that C# 3.0 and VB.Net 9.0 don't take the same view of Nullable<>. C# takes the idea that Nullable<> is to bridge between value and reference types, while VB takes the idea that Nullable<> is to mirror SQL's NULL. This is a huge difference and it will be a source of REAL problems, mark my words. Null Comparison
