My first impression of // comments was that they are a harmless addition
to the language.  After reading some of the discussion in this newgroup
I now believe that they are not harmless.  // comments would add no new
capabilities to the language (comments are already possible), but would
add an interesting set of interactions with other language features.

If you do add // comments to c, what does the following code do?

/*	printf("One\n");	/* 1 */
	printf("Two\n");	/* 2 */
/*	printf("Three\n");
//	printf("Four\n");	/* 4 */
	printf("Five\n");	/* 5 */
//	printf("Six\n");	/* 6
	printf("Seven\n");	/* 7 */
/*	printf("Eight\n");
// */	printf("Nine\n");
	printf("Ten\n");	/* 10 */

This makes // look like a dangerous idea.
