This article covers four of the fixed database roles (db_datareader, db_datawriter, db_denydatareader, and db_denydatawriter). If you're new to SQL security (and maybe even if you're not) this article is worth reading.

Database Workbench is a powerfull developer tool that includes support for Microsoft SQL Server, version 7, 2000, MSDE 1 & 2. It let's you create schema objects from a convenient interface, transfer data or profile your database by displaying query plans or creating thousands of rows of test-data.
We can only guess that someone somewhere put spaces in an object name that Andy works with and gave him the idea for this worst practice. Funny as the topic may sound, we agree - why make your lifer harder?
