Message-ID: <1992Dec8.141314.25052@inmet.camb.inmet.com> List-Id: Someone asks why we Ada enthusiasts don't post in the C newsgroups. My reason is that I am so sick of the C enthusiasts posting in the Ada group that I would not want to commit the same sin. I read comp.lang.ada because I'm interested in Ada. The language wars are offensive. If you think C is a better language than Ada, post *that* in the C newsgroups. I agree with the general point that Ada people should get more information out into the general community. However, stuff about the joys of language X in the language Y newsgroup is a disservice. -- Mike Ryer
