John Resig:

“One thing has always annoyed me about the script tag. Script tags that reference external resources (via the src attribute) are no longer able to execute script embedded within the tag itself.”

This has always bugged me, but I’ve never been able to come up with a good solution. I think John is really creating some good mojo with this post, and I’m fascinated to see whether we, as a community, can come up with a good pattern to make this type of script tag use work, and make it work well.
