LINQ: dot notation equivalent for JOIN

Like this:

List<Person> pr = db.Persons
                    .Join(db.PersonExceptions,
                          p => p.ID,
                          e => e.PersonID,
                          (p, e) => new { p, e })
                    .Where(z => z.e.CreatedOn >= fromDate)
                    .OrderByDescending(z => z.e.CreatedOn)
                    .Select(z => z.p)
                    .ToList();

Note how a new anonymous type is introduced to carry both the p and e bits forward. In the specification, query operators which do this use transparent identifiers to indicate the behaviour.
