...and we shouldn't forget that the Allied forces are using
English as their language - I think that Mr Faust, if he believes
that a -language- shouldn't be used if it is every associated with
war, should stop using English. That would be consistent, wouldn't
it Mr Faust.

I didn't see the original post, because Mr Faust is in my 
kill file. Probably for very good reason.

My guess is that he totally clueless with respect to computer
languages.
