For those who don't get the magazine (which, BTW, fully reflects the heavy C/C++ useage in embedded work), it shows on one side a proper little girl sitting in a fancy chair, with a star above her head and "ADA" (sic) written across her, while on the other side a goofy-looking boy sits on a stool with a dunce cap and "C++" written across him. Makes me think they'd be receptive to more Ada articles...
