Thanks go to Jean-Pierre Rosen for taking the time to write a letter, 
"Lack of Ada Reflects Software Immaturity", to the editors of 
"Communications of the ACM" that they published in the March '06 issue.

It was in a response to an article titled "Detection and Prevention of 
Stack Buffer Overflow Attacks" (11/2005).

Money quote (as they say :-)...

"Many of the problems addressed in the article follow from not using 
appropriate programming languages, an issue Ada solved more than 20 
years ago."

Thanks!
