Yeah, there aren't many other WPF entries, since the contest is positioned with such a web app focus. I definitely wanted something that could be used online or offline. Glad you enjoyed it, Walt!

One trick which you didn’t mentioned: when you use a Typename very often eg EventArgs you can abbreviate it by declaring it using using:

You have to explicitly specify the namespace, but if its used often: worth it, you can save code space.
