Bryan, do you really think Levi is talking about MS VS and ilk? You've
obviously not been paying attention. Levi is talking about Smalltalk and
Lisp.

The problem with Java programmers is that the majority are so short
sighted. I mean geez, how long did it take to get a simple stupid
foreach loop added? And then there's the need to use anonymous classes
to shoe horn first class function in Java. For shame.

But at least Java doesn't treat me like a complete moron anymore. It's
just a shame that it took Microsoft trusting us with C# to shake Java
from its tar pit of complacency.
