My what a week of interesting discussions. Lets end this week on a

Insert various analogies between programming languages and automobiles 
here :)


   * $MY_FAVORITE_LANGUAGE is like a $REALLY_COOL_CAR, while
     $YOUR_FAVORITE_LANGUAGE is like a Yugo.
   * $C_OR_ASSEMBLER_ITS_REALLY_THE_SAME_THING is like a thermonuclear
     missile, in that it is fast and powerful, but if you are not
     careful, you can give yourself an ouchie :)
