I still consider my abilities lacking because of not being able to implement concurrently executing code in the languages I know. Project Euler seems like a nice place to start if I wanted to learn Clojure.. :) Coming to think of it, I never had a reason to learn C++ too. We were forced to learn it in school and it stuck. Actually we had a choice between C++ and biology and I thought I knew better ;) --chillu
