problems/risks due to programming language

[Mark Brader]

Dick Dunn writes in comp.lang.postscript:
|  Look, this isn't alt.flame.  Some of us read this group to exchange ideas
|  about PostScript, not to watch all the wannabes preen their egos and whine
|  about what is, in the final analysis, the fact that Adobe created
|  PostScript and they didn't.
|  
|  If there's any of the "Love it or leave it" philosophy here, it's in the
|  anti-Adobe attitude that seems to say that Adobe is evil because they're
|  successful, and that anyone who isn't flaming Adobe must be a simpering
|  sycophant.  Anyone who dares to be *happy* about PostScript, or who finds
|  it *incredibly useful*, is somehow on the defensive lately.

If he had said "C" instead of "PostScript" and "Adobe", much of this
would be equally applicable to certain recent traffic in this newsgroup.
