Regular Expression posts of recent note on blogs.RegexAdvice.com

Justin Rogers: What does conditional matching really mean in a regular expression?
Justin Rogers: The not so basics of NOT!
Darren Neimke: Cleaning a list perf. test
Darren Neimke: The sugary synax we love... Lookaround

To note both of my posts are on reduction. Taking advanced syntax features and turning them into more basic syntax that may be more verbose but requires a lighter support of the regular expressions standard. Darren's post start with a killer reason for using look-around assertions. I assert that any expression can be rewritten without a look-around assertion and I've been on a rampage trying to rewrite all of Darren's and Michael's expressions and removing any assertions in the process.
