Re: Java

   From: Morgan McGuire <morgan3d@yahoo.com>

   everybody and his brother has their own language....

   Cold Fusion,...

Which reminds me: Anyone who wants to weigh "syntax" as a significant
factor preventing Lisp/Python/fill-in-the-blank from taking the world
by storm ought to learn CFML (ColdFusion Markup Language).  The
horror!  The horror!

And yet, Allaire/Macromedia seem to be making decent money off of
ColdFusion.  My wife observed that the .cfm Web pages she's visited
are, on average, a lot more responsive than the .asp or .jsp pages, so
maybe they actually have a quality product behind the money.  But the
syntax ... it's the only computer language I ever learned that made me
long for C++.
