Isn't the LOC thing kinda bogus anyway since some programs are relying on external modules or libraries? I always kinda chuckle when people say they can write something in 5 lines of Perl, but they don't mention that it's because they are using 3 CPAN modules that weigh in at over 1MB each. Yeah, that's probably exaggerated, but you get the idea.
I'd be curious to see the LOC comparison of programs written with no external dependencies.
