Lets see.

If you have to type out a bunch of crap like this just to print.

system.out.println

How much to you have type in to get anything real done?

other than a very popular language (such as Java) right now.
I am in business for myself. Most of my income in the last year has
come from working with C/C++ and PHP as far as programming languages
are concerned. I had worked with Java earlier , and it was paying the
bills for a while, although it created a strong temptation for me to
use profane language. I strongly dislike continually being forced to
use a semi to move a roomful of furniture. I eventually convinced the
client to migrate to PHP.

I couldn't agree more.  Every time I look at Java code, I question my
desire to be a programmer.  Programming should be fun.  Luckily I've
avoided it thus far in my career and I hope to continue to do so.
