Actually, they were only smote down because they
tried to compare the tower to God. 

You'll notice that a similar thing happened with
the Titanic when they dubbed it the "unsinkable" ship.

I think if everyone keeps an open mind about all this
and does not consider XML or any other technology to
be the end-all, be-all of existence, the technologies
will probably be relatively safe from divine retribution.

As I recall and that was when I was younger, it was 
the tower and the king that were smoten, but the 
people were scattered babbling.  So when XML comes 
to full dominance, we can likely expect the Internet 
to crash once and for all.
