I'll no doubt get flamed for this, but I couldn't resist :-).

On my wall I have a poster that enumerates exactly what real programmers
are and aren't (yes, one of those lists :-).  Among its many words of
wisdom is the following:

	"Real programmers don't write in PASCAL, BLISS or ADA, or
	 any of those pinky computer science languages.  Strong typing
	 is for people with weak memories."

I'll type and and post the full list if there are a substantial number
of requests.

Bye!

Rhys.
