Let's look at a simple analogy. Why is there language war? The individuals' ultimate goal is to dominate the computer world with the language that they think superior to the other. I say C is better than Ada and hundreds of C.L.A. will immediately "retaliate" with the intention to help me to understand why Ada is a better option to C. Often this good intention to help will soon propagate itself into a large scale language war. Look carefully. What happen to this world now actually exist in C.L.A. but on a different scale. C culture often conflicts with Ada's. Western culture often conflicts with the eastern, particularly the middle east. How often western leader can accomodate the feeling of people with cultural differences? That's the source of the problem. Has Ada dominated? What about C? What about the others? No one language will ever dominate. Never. And each day, new programming languages emerged. So does human culture. -- type Dmitry is new Adrian; -- Adrian Hoe -- http://adrianhoe.com -- Remove *nospam* to email
