You appear to take exception to distinguishing between a language and its implementation. My academic work, before I became a computer science/software engineering instructor, was in programming language specification and implementation, so I *DO* know what I'm talking about here. However, you and I apparently are speaking on different wavelengths. > It's just idiocy. Regretfully, I must agree. > But fun.
