but the runtime evaluation hacks are precisely what give rise to the problems. you and abramo may have conceived of it as a static language in the first place, but it clearly has, along with just about every other "small language", mutated into something else. the story of PHP is one of the more recent illustrations of this. >It is something similar like "HTML" and "Java script".
