I'd choose ada95, everytime. Especially after reading the Java disclaimer
that came with my new browser. Right up front it clearly states that Java
is not "fault-tolerant". Granted a class is not controlling a missle or
A/C but why would you deliberately choose a language so new to learn with.
Plus, Ada95 has been approved as an international standard. And if that's
not good enough, I know of one Ada95 vender whose compiler will generate
Java.

My Opinion.
