I've been saying that for a long time as many of my fellow CS majors
just gush about how much they like C and distain languages like Ada,
Pascal, and Lisp (not that I care for turning my brain inside out to
do lisp and recurse everything, mind you :-) ).

I keep telling them, "Why would I want to program in C? If I wanted
to do assembly language, I'd just do assembly language!"
