well, now we know why english isn't a programming language. my article
was a slam on the most insipid, brain-dead language i've ever encountered.
i didn't say ADA or COBOL merely because i've never programmed in them.
i wouldn't wish LISP on anybody. the reference to Abelson and Sussman
was a slam also. the authors are obviously idiots who know nothing
of programming outside the ivory tower.
